The Republic of Criptanaula is a very large, genial nation, remarkable for its irreverence towards religion, absence of drug laws, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate population of 304 million Criptanaulans enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The medium-sized, liberal government juggles the competing demands of Education, Welfare, and Social Policy. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Sirtselə. The average income tax rate is 24.6%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The strong Tanacriptanolo economy, worth 20.0 trillion Silverdrops a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Beef-Based Agriculture industry, with major contributions from Automobile Manufacturing, Book Publishing, and Cheese Exports. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 65,713 Silverdrops, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.0 times as much as the poorest.

Even the nation's brussel sprouts are delicious and nutritious, parents must choose their children's names from a government-mandated master list, military equipment stores have a tendency to go up in flames, and the realistic depiction of tentacles is on the core syllabus of most art schools. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Criptanaula's national animal is the Grand Lure, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Criptanaula is ranked 192,362^nd in the world and 1,435^th in the Rejected Realms for Fattest Citizens, with 9.48 Obesity Rate.
