The Kingdom of Grod Dratia is a massive, genial nation, ruled by Terren Lung with an even hand, and renowned for its national health service, complete lack of prisons, and irreverence towards religion. The compassionate, cheerful population of 3.911 billion Grod Dratians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Styria. The average income tax rate is 94.7%.

The frighteningly efficient Grod Dratian economy, worth 581 trillion leis a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Basket Weaving. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 148,628 leis, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

There has been a series of riots between local cannibals and health food advocates, the government is avowedly secular, populations of two-headed Gerbils have been found around recently-uncovered archaeological sites, and EULAs remind customers that "Private Mode" is a browser setting rather than a promise. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Grod Dratia's national animal is the Gerbil, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is the Cult of Cthulu.

Grod Dratia is ranked 312,271^st in the world and 5,074^th in The East Pacific for Largest Furniture Restoration Industry, scoring -10.86 on the Spitz-Pollish Productivity Index.
