The Principality of Growlingen is a gargantuan, genial nation, ruled by Mamus VII with a fair hand, and remarkable for its ban on automobiles, punitive income tax rates, and suspicion of poets. The compassionate, democratic population of 18.512 billion Growlings love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.

The large, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Spirituality, Education, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Snapyet. The average income tax rate is 54.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The large but inefficient Growlingenian economy, worth 745 trillion Goezoes a year, is led by the Woodchip Exports industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Uranium Mining, and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 40,277 Goezoes, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.8 times as much as the poorest.

Reporters who negatively comment on politicians' haircuts are cut from the news, the once prosperous capital is in utter decline, pocket calculators are seen as status symbols for the ostentatiously wealthy, and administrative districts are increasingly defined by their taste in housing architecture. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Growlingen's national animal is the werewolf, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Christianity.

Growlingen is ranked 115,469th in the world and 41st in New Europe for Most Stationary, with 328.81188678248 days.
