The Uncomfortable Presence of Grimlet Grimshaw is a massive, economically powerful nation, ruled by Our Leader with an even hand, and notable for its parental licensing program. Its hard-nosed, hard-working population of 4.343 billion 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.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent, corrupt government stops and the rest of society begins, but it devotes most of its attentions to Law & Order, with areas such as Social Equality and Social Welfare receiving almost no funds by comparison. It meets every day to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Gorro. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 22%. A powerhouse of a private sector is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, followed by Beef-Based Agriculture and Furniture Restoration.

The government is seen to favor Catholics, the nation's infamous boot camp is more brutal than most battlefields, citizens live in superstitious fear of the mysterious glowing clouds that float over Grimlet Grimshaw, and the fire protection service is wholly government-funded. Crime -- especially youth-related -- is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Grimlet Grimshaw's national animal is the Greasy Face-Hamster, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, its national religion is Oasism, and its currency is the Jack.

Grimlet Grimshaw is ranked 52nd in Christians United and 111,321st in the world for Most Income Equality, scoring 51 on the Marx-Engels Emancipation Scale.
