The Rogue Nation of New Crato Xerinius is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by Zorzon with an iron fist, and remarkable for its avowedly heterosexual populace, sprawling nuclear power plants, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 4.905 billion Xerinians 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 prioritizes Defense, with Law & Order and Industry also on the agenda, while Environment and Welfare are ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Grapho 1. The average income tax rate is 79.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Xerinian economy, worth a remarkable 1,544 trillion Surgons 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 an enormous, deeply entrenched, broadly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Uranium Mining, Information Technology, and Beef-Based Agriculture. 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 an amazing 314,850 Surgons, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.7 times as much as the poorest.

Talkative students are escorted from schools in second-hand prison buses, diplomacy is a foreign concept to Xerinians, senior citizens can usually be found doing heavy manual labour, and the Ministry of Truthiness now manages the entire media industry. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. New Crato Xerinius's national animal is the Leaf-cutter ant, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

New Crato Xerinius is ranked 282,632^nd in the world and 22^nd in Fullworthia for Most Primitive, scoring -379.64 on the Scary Big Number Scale.
