The Drowning of Sorrows of The Grape Depression is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, renowned for its barren, inhospitable landscape, absence of drug laws, and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-working, democratic population of 15.196 billion Grape Depressionians live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.

The tiny, liberal, pro-business, outspoken government prioritizes Defense, although Welfare, Healthcare, and Administration are also considered important, while International Aid and Spirituality aren't funded at all. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 7.8%.

The strong Grape Depressionian economy, worth 559 trillion Namarts a year, is led by the Uranium Mining industry, with major contributions from Woodchip Exports, Basket Weaving, and Soda Sales. Average income is 36,790 Namarts, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 237,117 per year while the poor average 2,306, a ratio of 102 to 1.

Crime is a serious problem, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. The Grape Depression's national animal is the Left-Handed Chicken, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

The Grape Depression is ranked 268,654^th in the world and 4^th in The Flowing Kingdom for Lowest Crime Rates, with 38.58 law-abiding acts per hour.
