The Republic of Republiqueducroissant is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Maitre Croissant with an even hand, and remarkable for its museums and concert halls, ban on automobiles, and keen interest in outer space. The compassionate population of 3.346 billion Croissantois are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Métropole du Grand Croissant. The average income tax rate is 77.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Croissantois economy, worth 327 trillion Dollar croissantiens a year, is quite specialized and led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Basket Weaving, and Information Technology. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 97,733 Dollar croissantiens, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Attempts to inform people about their unclaimed property are often mistaken for telephone scams, the meaning of life was recently discovered in the patch notes for Version 1.42, stuttering trypanophobes are doomed never to marry, and foreign workers are flooding in as Dollar croissantiens flood out. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Republiqueducroissant's national animal is the Lynx, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Croissantisme.

Republiqueducroissant is ranked 22,755^th in the world and 829^th in The North Pacific for Lowest Crime Rates, with 87.7 law-abiding acts per hour.
