The Grant of Toscaria is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Carlo Frescobaldi with an even hand, and renowned for its compulsory military service and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working population of 24.007 billion Toscarians are free to succeed or fail in life on their own merits; the successful tend to enjoy an opulent (but moralistic) lifestyle, while the failures can be seen crowding out most jails.

The relatively small, moralistic, pro-business government prioritizes Spirituality, with Law & Order, Defense, and Industry also on the agenda, while Welfare is ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Grampione. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 9.7%.

The very strong Toscarian economy, worth a remarkable 1,217 trillion livroes a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Gambling industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Basket Weaving, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. Average income is 50,724 livroes, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 154,953 per year while the poor average 12,870, a ratio of 12.0 to 1.

Voting is voluntary, Toscaria has designated Grampione as its capital city, Carlo Frescobaldi has just been declared ruler of Toscaria in an international press conference, and Roman Catholicism has been named as Toscaria's national religion. Crime is a problem, possibly because it is difficult to make it through a day without breaking one of the country's many regulations. Toscaria's national animal is the Toscarian hound and its national religion is Roman Catholicism.

Toscaria is ranked 149,473^rd in the world and 69^th in Grant for Most Cultured, scoring 64 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
