The Dictatorship of Kratatoa is a gargantuan, orderly nation, notable for its compulsory military service, triple-decker prams, and avowedly heterosexual populace. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 16.908 billion Kratatoans are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The enormous, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Kratatoa City. The average income tax rate is 86.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Kratatoan economy, worth a remarkable 1,719 trillion Kracks a year, is quite specialized and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 101,689 Kracks, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.5 times as much as the poorest.

There are no more heroes any more, rubber stamp emojis are the new craze, explosive diarrhoea is not just a colorful phrase, and movie producers send film critics wads of cash in their morning newspapers in anticipation of gushing praise. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Kratatoa's national animal is the Devil, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Kratatoa is ranked 12,982nd in the world and 323rd in the Rejected Realms for Lowest Crime Rates, with 96.55 law-abiding acts per hour.
