The Disputed Territories of Cryogan is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, remarkable for its ban on automobiles, enforced nudity, and stringent health and safety legislation. The cynical population of 18.519 billion Cryoganians 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, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Public Transport, Spirituality, and Environment. The average income tax rate is 49.5%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but stagnant Cryoganian economy, worth 50.3 trillion Dollars a year, is quite specialized and led by the Beef-Based Agriculture industry, with major contributions from Soda Sales, Cheese Exports, and Information Technology. Black market activity is extensive. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 2,713 Dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The government is seen to favor Catholics, surveillance cameras are banned, cars are banned, and military funding has been stripped back. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Cryogan's national animal is the horse.

Cryogan is ranked 237,142^nd in the world and 128^th in Middle Earth for Largest Manufacturing Sector, scoring 293.92 on the Gooback-Jerbs Productivity Index.
