The Federal Capitalist Republic of Kronverg is a mammoth, safe nation, ruled by Alexander Kerensky with an iron fist, and remarkable for its public floggings, triple-decker prams, and avowedly heterosexual populace. The hard-nosed, cynical, devout population of 5.862 billion Kronvergians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The medium-sized, corrupt, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, although Industry, Education, and Administration are also considered important, while International Aid isn't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Petrograd. The average income tax rate is 73.1%.

The frighteningly efficient Kronvergian economy, worth 865 trillion Vanrovvers a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Information Technology, and Cheese Exports. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 147,639 Vanrovvers, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.7 times as much as the poorest.

Restaurateurs put a lot of effort into persuading customers to accept wafer-thin mints, TV shows must meet strict ethnicity quotas, the sound of wooden legs echo throughout Kronverg after the recent introduction of the Foot Tax, and pregnancy tests are under fire from the government for being marketed only to women. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Kronverg's national animal is the Bat, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Orthodoxy.

Kronverg is ranked 263,914th in the world and 598th in Europe for Fattest Citizens, with 6.92 Obesity Rate.
