The Federation of Graofan is a gargantuan, genial nation, ruled by the people with a fair hand, and renowned for its keen interest in outer space, irreverence towards religion, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic, cheerful population of 16.289 billion Graofanians hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The large, liberal, outspoken government prioritizes Education, with Environment, Healthcare, and Social Policy also on the agenda, while Defense and Law & Order receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Shark Bay. The income tax rate is 100%.

The frighteningly efficient Graofanian economy, worth a remarkable 5,706 trillion Ears of Corn a year, is highly specialized and mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an amazing 350,355 Ears of Corn, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Owning a really cute pet is grounds for immediate investigation, a ban on unsolicited cold calling in all forms is in effect, throwing garbage out of your house's front window makes it legally someone else's problem, and 9 out of 10 consumers think that vitamins can cure cancer. Crime, especially youth-related, is all-pervasive, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Graofan's national animal is the Shark, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans, and its national religion is kindness.

Graofan is ranked 1,375^th in the world and 3^rd in Taijitu for Largest Welfare Programs, scoring 10,565.3 on the Safety Net Mesh Density Rating.
