The Kingdom of Grod Dratia is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by Terren Lung with an even hand, and renowned for its frequent executions, keen interest in outer space, and restrictive gun laws. The compassionate, cheerful population of 2.667 billion Grod Dratians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Styria. The average income tax rate is 90.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Grod Dratian economy, worth 342 trillion leis a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Basket Weaving. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 128,304 leis, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Truancy is as easy as clicking a camera icon, police officers often head to work wearing onesies and fluffy pink bunny-slippers, vital intelligence-gathering activities are put on hold as agents return home for seduction training and advanced poker instruction, and towns are often run by puppets. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Grod Dratia's national animal is the Gerbil, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is the Cult of Cthulu.

Grod Dratia is ranked 5,864th in the world and 147th in The East Pacific for Highest Food Quality, scoring 195.99 on the Meeshlin-Starr Index.
