The Legacy of Griet is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Miss Griet with a fair hand, and remarkable for its rampant corporate plagiarism, unlimited-speed roads, and suspicion of poets. The hard-nosed, democratic population of 27.56 billion Grietians love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.

The enormous, socially-minded, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Environment, Spirituality, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Griettown. The average income tax rate is 57.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The large but underdeveloped Grietian economy, worth 502 trillion Euros a year, is quite specialized and mostly made up of the Trout Farming industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Automobile Manufacturing, and Tourism. Black market activity is frequent. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 18,243 Euros, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Griet has designated Griettown as its capital city, suburban families are finding themselves increasingly short on food as they waste precious water on their lawns, The Worship of Griet has been named as Griet's national religion, and Miss Griet has just been declared ruler of Griet in an international press conference. Crime is relatively low. Griet's national animal is the horse, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is The Worship of Griet.

Griet is ranked 180,302^nd in the world and 1^st in Stratocrators for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring 352.45 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
