The Republic of The Imagination Animals is a massive, orderly nation, ruled by Waldemar Rochester with an iron fist, and renowned for its unlimited-speed roads, avowedly heterosexual populace, and compulsory military service. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless, devout population of 4.899 billion Crossoverians 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 large, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Industry, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Crossoveripolis. The average income tax rate is 95.5%.

The frighteningly efficient Crossoverian economy, worth a remarkable 1,238 trillion Crossoverian Rials a year, is broadly diversified and mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Furniture Restoration, and Woodchip Exports. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an amazing 252,867 Crossoverian Rials, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.8 times as much as the poorest.

Citizens are forced to donate blood once every three months, students and teachers are regularly stopped and searched for symbols of religious affiliation before class, years of counter-terrorism planning are foiled by small details, and the request to "give us our daily bread" can only be fulfilled six days out of seven. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. The Imagination Animals's national animal is the Opossum, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Islam.

The Imagination Animals is ranked 29,813^th in the world and 4^th in SolarFlare for Largest Welfare Programs, scoring 2,631.63 on the Safety Net Mesh Density Rating.
