The Colony of Croait is a titanic, safe nation, renowned for its compulsory military service, punitive income tax rates, and restrictive gun laws. The hard-nosed, cynical, devout population of 17.239 billion Croaitians 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 enormous, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Spirituality, Law & Order, and Defense. The average income tax rate is 57.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The large but inefficient Croaitian economy, worth 506 trillion Citas a year, is quite specialized and dominated by the Uranium Mining industry, with significant contributions from Basket Weaving, Trout Farming, and Gambling. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 29,378 Citas, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.4 times as much as the poorest.

Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Croait's national animal is the Vippertooth Dragon, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Croait is ranked 95,602^nd in the world and 1^st in The Psycho Reich for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 961.9 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
