The Empire of CruddsDuddsAye is a massive, efficient nation, renowned for its compulsory military service, smutty television, and frequent executions. The hard-nosed, hard-working population of 1.103 billion CruddsDuddsAyeans are either ruled by a sleek, efficient government or a conglomerate of multinational corporations; it's difficult to tell which.

The relatively small, corrupt, pro-business government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Industry, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Bone Crusher. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 14.9%.

The frighteningly efficient CruddsDuddsAyean economy, worth 169 trillion Arg Bargs a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Retail, Uranium Mining, and Book Publishing. Black market activity is notable. Average income is an impressive 153,713 Arg Bargs, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 476,820 per year while the poor average 38,152, a ratio of 12.5 to 1.

Dogman-branded weapons are all the rage in the militaristic comic-book community, it's harder to qualify for IVF than for a good university, governments opposing CruddsDuddsAye are beset by rebels, and the government is pouring money into 'Operation Enduring Democracy'. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. CruddsDuddsAye's national animal is the Wet Shaking Rat, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

CruddsDuddsAye is ranked 21,258^th in the world and 28^th in Portugal for Largest Publishing Industry, scoring 8,455.35 on the Bella Potter Productivity e-Index.
