The Sultanate of Tamara Crankit is a colossal, orderly nation, renowned for its barren, inhospitable landscape and state-planned economy. The cynical population of 3.74 billion Tamara Crankitians are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

The large, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Education, and Defense. The average income tax rate is 37.7%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but underdeveloped Tamara Crankitian economy, worth 87.7 trillion guilders a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a slick, highly efficient, quite specialized black market in Trout Farming, Uranium Mining, Retail, and Information Technology. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is 23,461 guilders, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The country's famous rainforests are being bulldozed by the mining industry and a large-scale revitalization of the education system is underway. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Tamara Crankit's national animal is the elephant, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Tamara Crankit is ranked 318,168^th in the world and 1^st in Breckenridge for Most Developed, scoring 46.22 on the Human Development Index.
