The Socialist Empire of Cakrystan is a huge, genial nation, renowned for its compulsory military service and digital currency. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic, devout population of 648 million Cakrystanians enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The relatively small government prioritizes Spirituality, with Administration, Welfare, and Education also on the agenda, while Industry and Public Transport aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Crèstburg'. The average income tax rate is 17.5%.

The sizeable but inefficient Cakryst economy, worth 32.3 trillion Crysk Euros a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Cheese Exports, Automobile Manufacturing, and Basket Weaving. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 49,852 Crysk Euros, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.3 times as much as the poorest.

Children make Cakrystan drive 'round, a popular saying is "don't do the crime if you can't smash the lime(stone)", preschoolers practice disarming active shooters before naptime, and soldiers are equipped with multi-million Crysk Euro battlesuits. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Cakrystan's national animal is the Eurasian Bear, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Cakrystan is ranked 73,695^th in the world and 4,014^th in Balder for Largest Trout Fishing Sector, scoring 3,810.96 on the Nemo Depletion Efficiency Index.
