The Kingdom of Grodisze is a huge, efficient nation, ruled by Bogumił I Popielowski with a fair hand, and remarkable for its pith helmet sales, strictly enforced bedtime, and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic, devout population of 907 million Grodiszeans enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Education, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Letnica. The average income tax rate is 9.8%.

The frighteningly efficient Grodiszean economy, worth 106 trillion piasts a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Retail industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Gambling, and Information Technology. Black market activity is notable. Average income is an impressive 117,397 piasts, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.5 times as much as the poorest.

Cogitators and mass debaters are skiving off work to hang around the National Symposium Park, nobody is allowed to stop the local daycare from reading Nietzsche to pre-schoolers, celebrity foodies are biting a huge chunk out of the government budget, and people say that smog must be good for you because of its healthy green colour. Crime is moderate, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Grodisze's national animal is the white-tailed eagle, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Grodisze is ranked 184,363^rd in the world and 906^th in Europe for Most Valuable International Artwork, with zero Bank.
