The Grant of Tonzivibbia is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Gaetano Altamore with an even hand, and renowned for its compulsory military service. The hard-nosed, hard-working population of 22.347 billion Tonzivibbians are free to succeed or fail in life on their own merits; the successful tend to enjoy an opulent (but moralistic) lifestyle, while the failures can be seen crowding out most jails.

The medium-sized, pro-business government juggles the competing demands of Spirituality, Law & Order, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Tonzivibbia. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 29.9%.

The very strong Tonzivibbian economy, worth a remarkable 1,013 trillion livroes a year, is quite specialized and led by the Cheese Exports industry, with major contributions from Door-to-door Insurance Sales, Retail, and Gambling. Average income is 45,338 livroes, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 138,499 per year while the poor average 11,503, a ratio of 12.0 to 1.

Voting is compulsory, Tonzivibbia has designated Tonzivibbia as its capital city, Gaetano Altamore has just been declared ruler of Tonzivibbia in an international press conference, and Roman Catholicism has been named as Tonzivibbia's national religion. Crime is moderate, possibly because it is difficult to make it through a day without breaking one of the country's many regulations. Tonzivibbia's national animal is the rust barnacle and its national religion is Roman Catholicism.

Tonzivibbia is ranked 241,305^th in the world and 82^nd in Grant for Lowest Crime Rates, with 54.29 law-abiding acts per hour.
