The Republic of Grith Neria is a massive, socially progressive nation, ruled by Albert with an even hand, and remarkable for its rum-swilling pirates, smutty television, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic population of 3.397 billion Grith Nerians enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Albertburg. The average income tax rate is 69.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Grith Nerian economy, worth 346 trillion Denaris a year, is led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Tourism, and Retail. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 101,904 Denaris, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Kids' party bags often contain candy and e-cigarettes, volunteers are signing up to take arms against an incursion of flesh-eating zombies (Grith Neria has found 3 easter eggs), parents dread their examinations more than their children, and the contraband cigarette trade is lighting up across Grith Neria. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Grith Neria's national animal is the Cat, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Grith Neria is ranked 256,472^nd in the world and 5,370^th in The North Pacific for Largest Automobile Manufacturing Sector, scoring -7.75 on the Henry Ford Productivity Index.
