The Commonwealth of Grachevia is a massive, genial nation, ruled by Radenko Medved with an even hand, and notable for its punitive income tax rates, restrictive gun laws, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate population of 3.138 billion Grachevians enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.
The government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked morass — juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Administration, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Vitastria. The average income tax rate is 78.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The strong Grachevian economy, worth 163 trillion Kelvins a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism and Furniture Restoration. Average income is 52,258 Kelvins, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
The government is constantly producing new maps to accommodate the continual renaming of cities, young girls and senior citizens alike can be spotted wearing colourful short shorts, government fact-checkers use surprising amounts of high explosive, and travelers are subject to extensive searches if beet stains are visible on their clothing. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Grachevia's national animal is the Inagua Woodstar, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.
Grachevia is ranked 243,086th in the world and 238th in Conch Kingdom for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring -5.4 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
