The Hrvatska Republika of Kronica is a huge, safe nation, ruled by President Oleksandr Kovačević with a fair hand, and remarkable for its daily referendums, keen interest in outer space, and absence of drug laws. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic population of 853 million Kronici hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The relatively small, liberal, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Education, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Adrajevo. The average income tax rate is 15.1%.

The Kronici economy, worth 43.5 trillion Kronici Drivs a year, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Beef-Based Agriculture, Tourism, and Gambling. Average income is 50,975 Kronici Drivs, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.1 times as much as the poorest.

People reciting Shakespeare have become a common sight, artists are pillars of society, President Oleksandr Kovačević has just been declared ruler of Kronica in an international press conference, and an increasing percentage of the population's youth have homosexual parents. Crime, especially youth-related, is moderate, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Kronica's national animal is the European Pine Marten, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Kronica is ranked 129,461^st in the world and 6,727^th in The North Pacific for Most Devout, with 8.53 Prayers Per Hour.
