The Royal Grímsvötnic Kingdom of Ejyafjallajokull is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by Kleifarvatn IV with a fair hand, and notable for its museums and concert halls, anti-smoking policies, and irreverence towards religion. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic, cheerful population of 24.834 billion Ejyafjallajokullians hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The enormous government prioritizes Education, although Welfare, Healthcare, and Environment are also considered important, while Defense and Spirituality receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Kirkjubæjarklaustur. The average income tax rate is 99.1%.

The frighteningly efficient Ejyafjallajokullian economy, worth a remarkable 5,011 trillion Ejyafjallajokullian Krónas a year, is quite specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology and Book Publishing. Average income is an amazing 201,787 Ejyafjallajokullian Krónas, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.4 times as much as the poorest.

Giggling elementary school newspaper reporters want to know why Kleifarvatn IV is a silly poophead, not many kids know Shakespeare's Hamlet but most of them have seen unofficial sequel Hamlet III - The Search For Osric, faceless corporations are expected to assume parental responsibility over millions of teenagers, and the family summer vacation has become a thing of the past following the introduction of the year-round school year. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Ejyafjallajokull's national animal is the Great Ejyafjallajokullian Auk, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Free Church of Ejyafjallajokull.
