The Nomadic Legion of Cruciland is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Keysar David Aryelev with an even hand, and remarkable for its frequent executions, soft-spoken computers, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, humorless, devout population of 22.666 billion Crucilandians are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.

The medium-sized, corrupt, socially-minded government prioritizes Defense, with Law & Order, Education, and Administration also on the agenda, while International Aid is ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Kokhavkiryah. The income tax rate is 100%.

The frighteningly efficient Crucilandian economy, worth an astonishing 22,143 trillion Niqudas 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, fairly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, and Book Publishing. 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 a breathtaking 976,958 Niqudas, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Only fully-fledged members of MENSA are allowed to vote, vaccinations are mandatory, the realistic depiction of tentacles is on the core syllabus of most art schools, and the deaf are perplexed when the weather report tells them that the wind will be "bringing some rain along the Nazi ghosts". Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Cruciland's national animal is the sabertoothed cheetah, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Historical Christianity.

Cruciland is ranked 615^th in the world and 2^nd in Fifth Empire for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring 12,925.77 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
