The Confederacy of Crevasse Stacking is a massive, cultured nation, remarkable for its deadly medical pandemics, prohibition of alcohol, and frequent executions. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 4.012 billion Crevasse Stackingians 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 large, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Law & Order, and Education. The average income tax rate is 86.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The frighteningly efficient Crevasse Stackingian economy, worth 551 trillion ouguiyas a year, is led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Retail, Uranium Mining, and Arms Manufacturing. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 137,400 ouguiyas, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
The diplomatic corps stinks, planespotters are emigrating in droves, the cancellation of "The Real Vixens of Crevasse Stacking City" has been described as a real blow for entertainment, and prices for nearly everything reach all-time highs as business tax breaks are discontinued. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Crevasse Stacking's national animal is the okapi, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.
Crevasse Stacking is ranked 47,441st in the world and 55th in Varas Opener Sanctuary for Most Patriotic, with 34.63 flags saluted per person per day.
