The Commonwealth of Gradavar is a colossal, orderly nation, renowned for its infamous sell-swords, aversion to nipples, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 7.689 billion Gradavarians are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.
The relatively small, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Defense, and Law & Order. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 19.5%.
The frighteningly efficient Gradavarian economy, worth a remarkable 2,415 trillion marks a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Arms Manufacturing, and Retail. Black market activity is rampant. Average income is an amazing 314,178 marks, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 1,110,135 per year while the poor average 64,259, a ratio of 17.3 to 1.
Sniffer dogs check train passengers for body odour, pro-democracy regime change has been avoided, conscientious objectors are hanged as traitors, and homeowners on prime real estate have been seen dodging giant bulldozers with cartoon characters painted on them. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Gradavar's national animal is the leopard.
Gradavar is ranked 34,135th in the world and 449th in The East Pacific for Most Stationary, with 1,297.5005237658 days.
