The Confederacy of Croatian empaths is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by Fenix Ash with an even hand, and notable for its anti-smoking policies, keen interest in outer space, and irreverence towards religion. The compassionate, humorless population of 4.275 billion Croatian empaths have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Utopia. The average income tax rate is 46.8%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Croatian empathsian economy, worth 708 trillion Psychokineses a year, is dominated by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Retail, and Information Technology. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 165,789 Psychokineses, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.3 times as much as the poorest.

Religious households enthusiastically use whips in private, tax-payers are funding ever more extravagant movie projects, truck drivers turn their engines off and coast whenever they're going downhill, and cutting-edge missile systems are being retrofitted to twin-prop air force biplanes. Crime is totally unknown. Croatian empaths's national animal is the Ris, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Void.

Croatian empaths is ranked 4,156^th in the world and 94^th in the Rejected Realms for Largest Publishing Industry, scoring 18,647.52 on the Bella Potter Productivity e-Index.
