The Undisputed Territories of Glasshred is a gargantuan, genial nation, ruled by Charles the Grim with an iron fist, and remarkable for its aversion to nipples, frequent executions, and suspicion of poets. The cynical population of 22.18 billion Glasshredians are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.

The relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Spirituality. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Onderford. The average income tax rate is 13.4%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The Glasshredian economy, worth 735 trillion Sovereigns a year, is quite specialized and led by the Woodchip Exports industry, with major contributions from Door-to-door Insurance Sales, Uranium Mining, and Soda Sales. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 33,166 Sovereigns, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.0 times as much as the poorest.

Poets and writers are regularly rounded up and shot for entertainment, all citizens are solely referenced by their allocated identity number, senior citizens can usually be found doing heavy manual labour, and birds and children's kites are regularly brought down by anti-aircraft fire. Crime, especially youth-related, is moderate, possibly because it is difficult to make it through a day without breaking one of the country's many regulations. Glasshred's national animal is the Golden Eagle, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution, and its national religion is worshipping Zeus and Hades.

Glasshred is ranked 286,654^th in the world and 5^th in Moldavia for Most Advanced Public Education, scoring zero on the Edu-tellignce® Test Score.
