The Espada of Grimmjow J is a gargantuan, orderly nation, ruled by Pantera with an iron fist, and remarkable for its prohibition of alcohol, punitive income tax rates, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 11.707 billion Grimmjow Jians are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

The medium-sized, corrupt, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Las Noches. The average income tax rate is 77.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Grimmjow Jian economy, worth a remarkable 2,800 trillion arrancars 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 an enormous, deeply entrenched black market in Information Technology, Retail, Uranium Mining, and Book Publishing. 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 an amazing 239,223 arrancars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The state believes that children are what you make of them, criminal convictions are routinely thrown out because the accused's grandmother didn't get to testify about their good character, napalm is the tool of choice for disabling eco-unfriendly forestry operations, and janitors and factory workers are often better educated than the bosses they work for. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Grimmjow J's national animal is the panther, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Cards.

Grimmjow J is ranked 28,567th in the world and 140th in Forest for Smartest Citizens, with 54.16 quips per hour.
