The United Socialist States of Graena is a colossal, safe nation, remarkable for its irreverence towards religion, compulsory gun ownership, and suspicion of poets. The hard-nosed, democratic population of 4.383 billion Graenans are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Education, and Defense. The average income tax rate is 25.4%.

The Graenan economy, worth 206 trillion Delta Eagles a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Retail, Furniture Restoration, and Tourism. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 47,033 Delta Eagles, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.7 times as much as the poorest.

Foreign lack of enthusiasm for Graenan nose-flute disco metal is seen as a reasonable casus belli, a major religion has been named as Graena's national religion, Leader has just been declared ruler of Graena in an international press conference, and Graena has designated Graena City as its capital city. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Graena's national animal is the Kitsune.

Graena is ranked 188,054^th in the world and 3^rd in Hargeisa for Highest Average Incomes, with 47,033.65 Standard Monetary Units.
