The Admirable Grand Duchy of Cytadela is a massive, genial nation, ruled by Jolene Crescenzo with an iron fist, and remarkable for its pith helmet sales, parental licensing program, and irreverence towards religion. The compassionate, hard-working, cynical population of 3.209 billion Cytadelans are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The medium-sized, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Education, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Paeonia. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 52.5%.

The frighteningly efficient Cytadelan economy, worth 416 trillion Regal Notes a year, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Retail, and Book Publishing. Average income is an impressive 129,635 Regal Notes, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 408,444 per year while the poor average 31,459, a ratio of 13.0 to 1.

Jolene Crescenzo lights cigars with a hundred-Regal Note bill, school children declare that teachers "may confiscate our toys but they can never take our FREEDOM", houses and businesses are bulldozed to make way for ever-expanding cemeteries, and any body part that can be cut off a person is no longer considered to be their property. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Cytadela's national animal is the Corsican red deer, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Cytadela is ranked 18,928^th in the world and 263^rd in Europe for Highest Average Incomes, with 129,635.77 Standard Monetary Units.
