The Sekhmet Legionnaire of Cretanja Garrison 25 is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by the Pharaoh with an even hand, and notable for its triple-decker prams, zero percent divorce rate, and suspicion of poets. The hard-nosed, hard-working, devout population of 4.89 billion Cretanjans are free to succeed or fail in life on their own merits; the successful tend to enjoy an opulent (but moralistic) lifestyle, while the failures can be seen crowding out most jails.
The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Industry, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Osiris. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 33.5%.
The all-consuming Cretanjan economy, worth 293 trillion Scarabs a year, is quite specialized and led by the Gambling industry, with significant contributions from Retail, Arms Manufacturing, and Basket Weaving. Black market activity is frequent. Average income is 60,044 Scarabs, but there is an enormous disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 369,886 per year while the poor average 4,241, a ratio of 87.2 to 1.
It is rumoured that the Pharaoh uses a magic 8-ball to make policy decisions, captains must wait until all rats are safe before jumping ship, environmental protestors are being rounded up and taken away in sinister black vans as a massive land development campaign gets underway, and the dead fish in the national rivers aren't decomposing because even bacteria can't survive the levels of toxicity. Crime is a problem. Cretanja Garrison 25's national animal is the Owl, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution, and its national religion is Kemeticism.
