The State of Grant Bigsby is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, remarkable for its frequent executions, state-planned economy, and punitive income tax rates. The cynical, devout population of 22.908 billion Grant Bigsbyians are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked, moralistic, socially-minded, well-organized morass — juggles the competing demands of Spirituality, Law & Order, and Social Policy. The average income tax rate is 77.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but stagnant Grant Bigsbyian economy, worth 96.0 trillion betales a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a slick, highly efficient, highly specialized black market in Cheese Exports, Retail, Soda Sales, and Pizza Delivery. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is 4,190 betales, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Euthanasia is illegal, high-income earners pay a 100% tax rate, military spending recently hit a new high, and gambling is outlawed. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Grant Bigsby's national animal is the deer, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Grant Bigsby is ranked 27,892nd in the world and 3rd in Bissau for Most Stationary, with 1,405.4104199812 days.
