The Commonwealth of Krashusher is a huge, safe nation, renowned for its public floggings, state-planned economy, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, devout population of 580 million Krashusherians 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 Law & Order, Administration, and Education. The average income tax rate is 73.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The Krashusherian economy, worth 34.3 trillion Orginan Chervonets a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is fairly diversified, is led by the Door-to-door Insurance Sales industry, with major contributions from Gambling, Furniture Restoration, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Average income is 59,202 Orginan Chervonets, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Single celebrities have to repeatedly prove their chastity to avoid being married off to infatuated fans, traveller camps regularly block five-lane superhighways, the nation is stuck in permanent election mode as politicians demand constant do-overs, and citizens wishing to be parents must undertake a series of gruelling tests to evaluate their capabilities. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Krashusher's national animal is the Jaguar Frog, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Krashusher is ranked 79,425^th in the world and 5^th in Bepis for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring 2,911.36 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
