The Retired Bureaucrat of Grolsch is a massive, socially progressive nation, renowned for its hatred of cheese. Its compassionate, intelligent population of 3.408 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 government stops and the rest of society begins, but it concentrates mainly on Education, although Social Equality and the Environment are secondary priorities. It meets every day to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Uzvertim. The average income tax rate is 86%, and even higher for the wealthy. A large private sector is dominated by the Tourism industry.

Gambling addicts regularly lose their families' nest eggs at Native Grolschite casinos, large areas of Grolsch are not accessible by the public, the government seeks peaceful forum with terrorists, and frequent fliers are obliged to submit to invasive security procedures by government security. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Grolsch's national animal is the Dragon, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its currency is the Beeram.

Grolsch is ranked 81st in Social Liberal Union and 6,743rd in the world for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 86 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
