The Theocracy of Croldai is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by The High Priest with an iron fist, and remarkable for its triple-decker prams, hatred of cheese, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 17.025 billion Croldaians are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The enormous, corrupt, moralistic, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Defense, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of The DEN. The income tax rate is 100%.

The frighteningly efficient Croldaian economy, worth a remarkable 7,822 trillion Crols a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology and Book Publishing. Average income is an amazing 459,490 Crols, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Politicians accepting drinks in bars are executed for taking bribes, military strategists are questioning the wisdom of subsidizing the economies of sworn enemies, passive-aggressive congratulations cards inform mums-to-be that their pregnancy is their greatest achievement in life, and arthritic citizens seem underrepresented at royal meet-and-greets. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Croldai's national animal is the Coyote, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Roman Catholicism.

Croldai is ranked 283,490th in the world and 332nd in The Black Hawks for Most Secular, with 0.31 Atheism Rate.
