The Dictatorship of Krinenia is a massive, orderly nation, ruled by Desriv Rycarkh Kuldalc with an iron fist, and remarkable for its frequent executions, irreverence towards religion, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 1.298 billion Krinenians 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, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Krilyfokra. The average income tax rate is 37.7%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The strong Krineni economy, worth 106 trillion Terrils a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a slick, highly efficient, fairly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Tourism, Cheese Exports, and Basket Weaving. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is 82,277 Terrils, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The nation's new flagship trading company deals exclusively in things no one wants, terrified tympanists are finding themselves on the front lines armed only with kettledrums, children spend all morning taking out a comma and all afternoon putting it back in again, and it is said that a Krineni woman's work is never done. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Krinenia's national animal is the Krinenian Sturgeon, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans, and its national religion is Atheism.

Krinenia is ranked 17,778^th in the world and 128^th in Europe for Most Patriotic, with 50.09 flags saluted per person per day.
