The Cooperatively Owned Republic of Gretarian is a massive, safe nation, ruled by Santa with an even hand, and notable for its multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, compulsory military service, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, democratic population of 2.511 billion Gretaris enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of North Pole. The average income tax rate is 90.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Gretari economy, worth 376 trillion Candy Canes a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Average income is an impressive 149,786 Candy Canes, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Bemused citizens are encouraged to sing foreign-language hymns of religions they have never heard of, shelters struggle to keep up with the endless intake of stray animals, military barracks resemble five-star hotels, and relations with Dàguó have warmed from frosty to chilly. Crime is totally unknown. Gretarian's national animal is the Reindeer, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Kang Shi Fu.

Gretarian is ranked 24,759^th in the world and 6^th in Liberlandia for Highest Average Incomes, with 149,786.57 Standard Monetary Units.
