The Mountain Paradise of Crested Butte is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Ski Pro with a fair hand, and renowned for its museums and concert halls, keen interest in outer space, and flagrant waste-dumping. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic, humorless population of 26.387 billion Crested Butteans live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.

The medium-sized, corrupt, liberal, pro-business, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Administration, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Gunnison. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 72.6%.

The frighteningly efficient Crested Buttean economy, worth a remarkable 7,449 trillion Wildflowers a year, is broadly diversified and mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Information Technology, Retail, Soda Sales, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is an amazing 282,330 Wildflowers, but there is an enormous disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 1,597,959 per year while the poor average 24,440, a ratio of 65.4 to 1.

City rooftops are pockmarked with the shattered remains of high velocity delivery drones, visiting the best Crested Buttean restaurants requires keeping a visa on file, cheap and tasteless vegetables flood the markets, and subsidisation of Big Pharma has stopped many corporate executives from having to sell their second homes. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Crested Butte's national animal is the Brown Bear, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Agnostic Pantheism.

Crested Butte is ranked 6,544^th in the world and 546^th in NationStates for Most Corrupt Governments, with 194.52 kickbacks per hour.
