The Nomadic Peoples of Gra Noria is a huge, environmentally stunning nation, remarkable for its frequent executions, lack of airports, and absence of drug laws. The hard-nosed, democratic population of 684 million Norians are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The medium-sized, socially-minded, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Environment, Healthcare, and Social Policy. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Pinztina. The average income tax rate is 32.0%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but underdeveloped Norian economy, worth 21.3 trillion Stones 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, quite specialized black market in Gambling, Tourism, Basket Weaving, and Beef-Based Agriculture. 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 31,119 Stones, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The big red machine has ground to a halt, survivors receive aid from only the most environmentally-friendly transport, children receive government-sanctioned brainrot, and politicians are often found scavenging bins at night to supplement their income. Crime is moderate, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Gra Noria's national animal is the Man, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Gra Noria is ranked 84,532^nd in the world and 3^rd in Claistrora for Highest Unexpected Death Rate, scoring 36.2 on the Bus Surprisal Index.
