The Democratic Provinces of Latin Crimea is a massive, socially progressive nation, remarkable for its triple-decker prams, pith helmet sales, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate population of 1.444 billion Latin Crimeans have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Sevastopol. The average income tax rate is 46.8%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming Latin Crimean economy, worth 148 trillion Croins a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Retail industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Tourism. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 103,138 Croins, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Defense lawyers often argue there's no proof murder victims weren't vampires, destitute AIs lurk around online bulletin boards begging for spare Croins, government bureaucrats review designs for birdhouses to ensure they do not block the views of neighbors, and the nation's universities are often mistaken for foreign embassies. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Latin Crimea's national animal is the Penguin, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans, and its national religion is Catholic.

Latin Crimea is ranked 38,908^th in the world and 1,339^th in The North Pacific for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 181.79 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
