The Disputed Territories of Griftlands is a colossal, socially progressive nation, renowned for its rum-swilling pirates, absence of drug laws, and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-working, democratic population of 7.053 billion Griftlandsians live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.

The minute, liberal, pro-business, outspoken government, or what there is of one, prioritizes Welfare, with Public Transport, Education, and Healthcare also on the agenda, while Industry and International Aid aren't funded at all. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 5.2%.

The strong Griftlandsian economy, worth 298 trillion bitcoins a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is led by the Woodchip Exports industry, with major contributions from Gambling, Uranium Mining, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. Average income is 42,313 bitcoins, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 200,765 per year while the poor average 5,262, a ratio of 38.1 to 1.

The mining industry is making inroads into environmentally sensitive areas, citizens are enjoying a recent large cut in taxes, the nation has become a pariah for giving pirates letters of marque, and military funding has been stripped back. Crime is a major problem, probably because of the absence of a police force. Griftlands's national animal is the griffon, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution.

Griftlands is ranked 287,292^nd in the world and 357^th in Eurth for Lowest Crime Rates, with 36.23 law-abiding acts per hour.
