The Republic of The Cranny is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, renowned for its compulsory military service and state-planned economy. The hard-nosed, democratic population of 31.072 billion Crannyians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.
The large government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Industry. The average income tax rate is 49.3%, but much higher for the wealthy.
The Crannyian economy, worth a remarkable 1,165 trillion platas a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a slick, highly efficient, quite specialized black market in Arms Manufacturing, Door-to-door Insurance Sales, Book Publishing, and Furniture Restoration. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is 37,494 platas, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
The nation's gigantic air force is both respected and feared. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. The Cranny's national animal is the coyote, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.
The Cranny is ranked 19,363rd in the world and 1st in Panama for Highest Foreign Aid Spending, scoring 1,202.4 on the Clooney Contribution Index.
