The Blank Wall of Grind is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, ruled by Walter Grind with a fair hand, and notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, enforced nudity, and absence of drug laws. The hard-working, democratic population of 30.674 billion Grindians hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Spirituality, and Social Policy. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Grinda. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 24.8%.

The strong Grindian economy, worth a remarkable 1,432 trillion Grinds a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Door-to-door Insurance Sales industry, with major contributions from Basket Weaving, Pizza Delivery, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Average income is 46,705 Grinds, with the richest citizens earning 7.5 times as much as the poorest.

Grind has designated Grinda as its capital city, Walter Grind has just been declared ruler of Grind in an international press conference, programmes of questionable content are shown at peak-hours, and armed police units patrol the roads late at night. Crime, especially youth-related, is moderate. Grind's national animal is the beaver, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities, and its national religion is The Wall.

Grind is ranked 215,577^th in the world and 3^rd in Aegean for Safest, scoring 52.99 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
