The Groot of Groot is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Groot with an even hand, and remarkable for its sprawling nuclear power plants, rampant corporate plagiarism, and vat-grown people. The compassionate population of 20.785 billion Groot 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 large government juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Education, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Groot. The average income tax rate is 70.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming Groot economy, worth a remarkable 1,857 trillion Groots a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Trout Farming, and Cheese Exports. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 89,389 Groots, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The lasting legacy of the current generation is a million years of buried radioactivity, Eau de Trashcan has become a wildly popular perfume, the latest Harry Potter book is a bestseller, and the sound of office water cooler chatter has been replaced by the whirring of computer cooling fans. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Groot's national animal is the Groot, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Groot is ranked 20,688th in the world and 12th in One big Island for Most Cultured, scoring 90 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
