The Province of Greater Drenthe is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Wilders with an even hand, and remarkable for its keen interest in outer space, ubiquitous missile silos, and frequent executions. The hard-nosed, hard-working population of 8.56 billion Great Drents 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 medium-sized, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Assen. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 67.9%.

The frighteningly efficient Greater Drenthean economy, worth a remarkable 1,354 trillion Guldens a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is an enormous, deeply entrenched black market in Information Technology, Arms Manufacturing, Book Publishing, and Tourism. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an impressive 158,183 Guldens, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 547,369 per year while the poor average 33,403, a ratio of 16.4 to 1.

Foreign policy is mostly just to smile and hope for the best, an increasing percentage of the population's youth have homosexual parents, the paparazzi publicize Royal scandals with the utmost delight, and nobody is allowed to stop the local daycare from reading Nietzsche to pre-schoolers. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Greater Drenthe's national animal is the Lion, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Esoteric Order of Dagon.

Greater Drenthe is ranked 22,127th in the world and 33rd in Lands End for Lowest Crime Rates, with 88.15 law-abiding acts per hour.
