Overview • Policies • People • Government • Economy • Rank • Trend • Cards

The Republic of Gimmick Puppet Giant Grinder is a colossal, cultured nation, renowned for its rum-swilling pirates, barren, inhospitable landscape, and compulsory military service. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 5.583 billion Gimmick Puppet Giant Grinderians are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The enormous, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Education. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 83.2%.

The frighteningly efficient Gimmick Puppet Giant Grinderian economy, worth 654 trillion Cards a year, is quite specialized and mostly made up of the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Retail, Basket Weaving, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 117,219 Cards, with the richest citizens earning 6.9 times as much as the poorest.

Violetist maidens who fall for an outsider must leave their violet light districts in shame, old fossils give the tours at the parliamentary museum, job satisfaction is a luxury many Gimmick Puppet Giant Grinderians can't afford, and defense lawyers suggestively note to juries how flagrantly happy victims were. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Gimmick Puppet Giant Grinder's national animal is the Kuriboh, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Gimmick Puppet Giant Grinder is ranked 41,993^rd in the world and 770^th in Suspicious for Most Conservative, scoring 78.33 on the Bush-Santorum Dawning Terror Index.
