The Dictatorship of Crickoworse is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, remarkable for its enslaved workforce, infamous sell-swords, and public floggings. The hard-nosed, cynical, devout population of 3.555 billion Crickoworseans 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, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, although Education, Administration, and Law & Order are also considered important. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Pātāla. The average income tax rate is 63.5%.

The frighteningly efficient Crickoworsean economy, worth 517 trillion Cricks a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Tourism, and Book Publishing. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 145,653 Cricks, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.4 times as much as the poorest.

A niche industry catering to S&M enthusiasts has sprung up, mining is the nation's most dangerous occupation, a the West Pacific Tourist Association survey has rated Crickoworse #1 for number twos, and the government's giant servers are often used as a tourist trap. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Crickoworse's national animal is the Bull, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Crickoworse is ranked 36,116^th in the world and 445^th in the West Pacific for Lowest Crime Rates, with 79.43 law-abiding acts per hour.
