The Republic of Kruitezia is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Josiah Heuven with an even hand, and remarkable for its parental licensing program, daily referendums, and ubiquitous missile silos. The compassionate, hard-working, humorless, devout population of 3.781 billion Kruitezi have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The medium-sized, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Administration, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Saint Versailles. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 82.1%.

The frighteningly efficient Kruitezi economy, worth 628 trillion Ĕgrons a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Tourism, and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 166,225 Ĕgrons, with the richest citizens earning 7.4 times as much as the poorest.

Fifty years of pension funds can disappear in half a second, companies are turning to trained Turtledoveasauruses for their most menial jobs, the nation has welcomed its expats back with open arms, and government bureaucrats spend six hours per day justifying a six-hour workday. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Kruitezia's national animal is the Turtledoveasaurus, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Christianity.

Kruitezia is ranked 15,628^th in the world and 14^th in The Kodiak Republic for Most Subsidized Industry, scoring 8,067.65 on the Gilded Widget Scale.
