The Federal Republic of Grenkopion is a massive, safe nation, remarkable for its teetotalling pirates, parental licensing program, and enslaved workforce. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 1.38 billion Grenkopionians are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

The large, corrupt, socially-minded government prioritizes Defense, although Industry, Healthcare, and Law & Order are also considered important, while Spirituality receives no funds. The average income tax rate is 78.5%.

The frighteningly efficient Grenkopionian economy, worth 170 trillion kronor 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 large, well-organized black market in Information Technology, Tourism, Arms Manufacturing, and Furniture Restoration. 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 an impressive 123,699 kronor, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.3 times as much as the poorest.

Confused-looking pigeons slide gently off frictionless window ledges, prison libraries are being replaced with interrogation chambers, the nation is under martial law, and the government burgles the houses of holidaying citizens. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Grenkopion's national animal is the lizard, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Grenkopion is ranked 14,315^th in the world and 47^th in Concord for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 4,235.86 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
