The Benevolent Dictatorship of Crecco is a colossal, orderly nation, ruled by Vincent Crecco with an iron fist, and renowned for its barren, inhospitable landscape, compulsory military service, and public floggings. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 3.545 billion Creccans 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, corrupt, pro-business, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, with Industry, Education, and Administration also on the agenda, while International Aid and Social Policy are ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of St Davids. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 5.3%.

The frighteningly efficient Creccan economy, worth 549 trillion Davidians a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Retail, Information Technology, and Gambling. Average income is an impressive 155,052 Davidians, but there is an enormous disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 848,853 per year while the poor average 14,450, a ratio of 58.7 to 1.

Tesco was recently named as the new national treasurer, nobody ever questions the unquestioned rule that questions must always be asked, strange men lingering in offices distributing television sets is a basis for a system of government, and signs at the border tell international drivers where they can put their cars. Crime is pervasive, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Crecco's national animal is the Kraken, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Creccanism.

Crecco is ranked 202,182nd in the world and 47th in Lone Wolves United for Largest Trout Fishing Sector, scoring 310.15 on the Nemo Depletion Efficiency Index.
