The Good Flag of Craiolia is a colossal, cultured nation, ruled by President Mor Boor with an even hand, and renowned for its compulsory military service, free-roaming dinosaurs, and prohibition of alcohol. The compassionate population of 8.588 billion Craiolians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Bandar. The average income tax rate is 94.5%.

The frighteningly efficient Craiolian economy, worth a remarkable 1,741 trillion Craiols a year, is led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Tourism, and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 202,769 Craiols, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Convicted criminals are given free limo rides to jail, business meetings across the country are interrupted by the sound of squeaking whoopee-cushions, most pop videos prominently feature the Craiolian flag, and Bandar's main city thoroughfare has been blocked by a row of leyland cypresses that mysteriously appeared overnight. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Craiolia's national animal is the Green Bear, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Craiolia is ranked 46,618^th in the world and 357^th in the West Pacific for Most Corrupt Governments, with 44.11 kickbacks per hour.
