The Groot of Groot is a gargantuan, genial nation, ruled by Groot with an even hand, and notable for its smutty television, sprawling nuclear power plants, and complete lack of prisons. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic population of 10.304 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 medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Groot. The average income tax rate is 35.2%.

The powerhouse Groot economy, worth 995 trillion Groots a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Trout Farming, and Cheese Exports. Average income is 96,660 Groots, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.6 times as much as the poorest.

More money is spent on policing the welfare system for abuse than on the welfare system itself, the fire protection service is wholly government-funded, the recently unemployed can often be seen at the local homeless shelter, and future forecasters fearfully discuss grey goo and human obsolescence. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Groot's national animal is the Groot, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Groot is ranked 132,459^th in the world and 30^th in One big Island for Fattest Citizens, with 8.77 Obesity Rate.
