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

The Republic of Grensal is a huge, orderly nation, renowned for its ubiquitous missile silos, free-roaming dinosaurs, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 348 million Grensalians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, with Law & Order, Education, and Administration also on the agenda, while Spirituality and International Aid receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Lebrun. The average income tax rate is 47.6%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The thriving Grensalian economy, worth 27.5 trillion Leuros a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Automobile Manufacturing, Woodchip Exports, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. Black market activity is frequent. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 79,074 Leuros, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.8 times as much as the poorest.

Ships are encouraged to deliberately run aground onto Grensalian beaches, cutting-edge missile systems are being retrofitted to twin-prop air force biplanes, people often feel unbalanced by their daily commute, and meteorologists are instantly recognizable from their luxury cars and jewelry. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Grensal's national animal is the Ant, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Grensal is ranked 152,093^rd in the world and 3,039^th in the South Pacific for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 64.8 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
