The Republic of Republiqueducroissant is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Maitre Croissant with an even hand, and remarkable for its keen interest in outer space, national health service, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate population of 3.435 billion Croissantois enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The enormous government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Métropole du Grand Croissant. The average income tax rate is 79.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Croissantois economy, worth 338 trillion Dollar croissantiens a year, is quite specialized and led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Basket Weaving, and Information Technology. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 98,584 Dollar croissantiens, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

People accuse the government of being in bed with Big Safety, the Forestry Department has decided you really can't fight fire with fire, visiting the best Croissantois restaurants requires keeping a visa on file, and almost all of the nation's water is piped into the country from abroad for exorbitant prices. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Republiqueducroissant's national animal is the Lynx, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Croissantisme.

Republiqueducroissant is ranked 287,600^th in the world and 6,192^nd in The North Pacific for Most Corrupt Governments, with 0.46 kickbacks per hour.
