The Jellyfish in the Sky of Nocryae is a titanic, orderly nation, ruled by Hikari with an iron fist, and renowned for its frequent executions, compulsory military service, and unlimited-speed roads. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 18.908 billion Nocryaeans 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 medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Aithne. The average income tax rate is 37.1%.

The all-consuming Nocryaean economy, worth a remarkable 1,873 trillion dollars a year, is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Tourism, and Furniture Restoration. Black market activity is frequent. Average income is 99,080 dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.3 times as much as the poorest.

Patriotic citizens chant "there's only one Nocryae" at foreigners, parents seeking custody have to write a five-thousand word analysis of their child's imaginary friend, access to the woods is only granted to those who bring a small shrubbery, and ambulances aren't allowed to overtake hearses. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Nocryae's national animal is the sassy sea turtles, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans, and its national religion is Castianity.

Nocryae is ranked 326,567^th in the world and 54^th in Town of Salem for Largest Pizza Delivery Sector, scoring -18.2 on the Pepperoni Propulsion Productivity Index.
