The Jellyfish in the Sky of Nocryae is a titanic, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Hikari with an iron fist, and remarkable for its free-roaming dinosaurs, unlimited-speed roads, and compulsory gun ownership. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 18.939 billion Nocryaeans 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 medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Aithne. The average income tax rate is 37.1%.

The all-consuming Nocryaean economy, worth a remarkable 1,876 trillion dollars a year, is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Tourism, and Furniture Restoration. Black market activity is frequent. Average income is 99,080 dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.3 times as much as the poorest.

Patriotic citizens chant "there's only one Nocryae" at foreigners, parents seeking custody have to write a five-thousand word analysis of their child's imaginary friend, access to the woods is only granted to those who bring a small shrubbery, and ambulances aren't allowed to overtake hearses. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Nocryae's national animal is the sassy sea turtles, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans, and its national religion is Castianity.

Nocryae is ranked 272,562nd in the world and 53rd in Town of Salem for Most Compassionate Citizens, scoring 37.37 on the Kitten Softness Rating.
