The Lazy Legion of Kryc is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Lazy Leo with an iron fist, and remarkable for its compulsory military service, irreverence towards religion, and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 17.572 billion Krycons are rabid consumers, partly through choice and partly because the government tells them to and dissenters tend to vanish from their homes at night.

The tiny, pro-business, well-organized government prioritizes Law & Order, although Defense, Healthcare, and Industry are also considered important, while International Aid and Spirituality are ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Kryc City. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 8.6%.

The very strong Krycion economy, worth a remarkable 1,148 trillion Coins a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Basket Weaving, and Furniture Restoration. Average income is 65,332 Coins, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 198,218 per year while the poor average 16,739, a ratio of 11.8 to 1.

Government-run screening operations remove embryos with severe genetic disorders, Lazy Leo has just been declared ruler of Kryc in an international press conference, Laziness has been named as Kryc's national religion, and Kryc has designated Kryc City as its capital city. Crime, especially youth-related, is relatively low, thanks to a capable police force. Kryc's national animal is the hawk, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Laziness.

Kryc is ranked 60,721st in the world and 1st in Enewetak Atoll for Most Primitive, scoring 45.83 on the Scary Big Number Scale.
