The Kingdom of Grod Dratia is a massive, socially progressive nation, ruled by Terren Lung with an even hand, and renowned for its sprawling nuclear power plants, ubiquitous missile silos, and frequent executions. The compassionate, cheerful population of 2.726 billion Grod Dratians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The enormous government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Styria. The average income tax rate is 91.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Grod Dratian economy, worth 350 trillion leis a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Basket Weaving. Average income is an impressive 128,595 leis, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The Gerbil is protected from hunting and slowly coming back from the brink of extinction, Maxtopian tourists make expensive pilgrimages to Styria to enjoy their national art, diminutive Grod Dratian generals are feared for their aggressiveness, and wars of expansion are described as "peacekeeping operations". Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Grod Dratia's national animal is the Gerbil, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is the Cult of Cthulu.

Grod Dratia is ranked 13,641^st in the world and 297^th in The East Pacific for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 347.15 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
