The Empire of The Craenate Empire is a huge, socially progressive nation, remarkable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, compulsory military service, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-working population of 352 million Craenashians enjoy some of the most opulent lifestyles in the region, unless they are unemployed or working-class, in which case they are variously starving to death or crippled by easily preventable diseases.

The tiny, liberal, pro-business government prioritizes Defense, with Education, Healthcare, and Law & Order also on the agenda, while Spirituality and International Aid aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Laputium. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 7.6%.

The strong Craenate economy, worth 14.7 trillion Venhalls a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Woodchip Exports industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. Average income is 41,792 Venhalls, but there is an enormous disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 229,551 per year while the poor average 3,867, a ratio of 59.4 to 1.

The country's famous rainforests are being bulldozed by the mining industry, organ donation rates are among the lowest in the region, families are left homeless as entire suburbs are bulldozed on the whim of tribal chiefs, and The Craenate Empire has designated Laputium as its capital city. Crime is a serious problem, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. The Craenate Empire's national animal is the Altirusian Leopard, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

The Craenate Empire is ranked 236,109^th in the world and 34^th in Byzantion for Largest Populations, with 352 million capita.
