Crowdanistan has has no major exports, but has a (comparatively) large tourism industry consisting of primarily college age youth from the surrounding area. Due to being entirely encompassed by the state of Indiana it is subject to many of the laws and customs set forth by the state; however, it is notable that the recognized drinking age is 18 in Crowdanistan.
