Kruschuchk

The People's Republic of Kruschuchk is a tiny, environmentally stunning nation, notable for its strong anti-business politics. Its hard-nosed, intelligent population of 6 million are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

Founded in 2006 by Crezth C. Hand, Kruschuchk is a headstrong, powerful capitalist nation. Having erupted out of the ashes of Old Xerconia, the People's Republic focuses on a more Socialist form of Government as opposed to the corrupt, corporate Police State which Xerconia was. It is also worthy of note that Crezth C. Hand was the nephew of Mastruh H. Hand, founder of the police state of Xerconia. Crezth is devoted to Communism and completely shuns Capitalist ideals, calling them "immoral and corrupt." In fact, during the revolution, he blamed the entire fall of Xerconia on its Capitalism:

The evils of Xerconia are to be blamed upon nothing else other than its Capitalist empire. It was a historical inevitability that Xerconia would fall to this weakness that it imposed upon itself, and soon the rest of the world shall feel the same revolution to the one, true Government, and it will not necessarily be by my hand. Long live the People's Republic!

Over 600 million were killed in the revolution. Now Kruschuchk is considerably smaller, but already having been built from scratch has the most powerful industry in Thorin. Crezth and his Kruschuchkan Socialist Party (abbreviated Krusoc) now threaten, politically, the Capitalist nations of Thorin.
