The Punk Paradise of Gryaz is a mammoth, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Vasya Nikolayeva with a fair hand, and notable for its deadly medical pandemics, compulsory vegetarianism, and unlimited-speed roads. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 5.654 billion Punks hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The large, liberal, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Environment, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Gryaz. The average income tax rate is 77.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Punk economy, worth 672 trillion Meloches a year, is quite specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Soda Sales. Black market activity is frequent. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 118,954 Meloches, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Birth rates have hit an all-time low, rioting during the nation's hosting of ORDER caused one million Meloches of property damage, aristocracy is given the bird and called out as a lark, and Warrior Cat is one of the most popular forenames in Gryaz. Crime, especially youth-related, is pervasive, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Gryaz's national animal is the Warrior Cat, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Gryaz is ranked 304,462^nd in the world and 1^st in That Part Of The Forest for Most Advanced Defense Forces, scoring -18.17 on the Total War Preparedness Rating.
