The Commonwealth of Gradavar is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, renowned for its frequent executions, otherworldly petting zoo, and keen interest in outer space. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 9.398 billion Gradavarians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The relatively small, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Defense, and Industry. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 42.7%.

The frighteningly efficient Gradavarian economy, worth a remarkable 3,430 trillion marks a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Arms Manufacturing, and Retail. Black market activity is rampant. Average income is an amazing 365,041 marks, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 1,642,684 per year while the poor average 50,044, a ratio of 32.8 to 1.

The nation's laws on image rights are amongst the strictest in the world, schoolchildren on field trips are asked what torture means to them, plain-clothes police officers follow Dàguó tourists everywhere they go, and it isn't only obsequious grandees who produce a lot of manure at state occasions. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Gradavar's national animal is the leopard, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Gradavar is ranked 5,282^nd in the world and 87^th in The East Pacific for Most Advanced Public Transport, scoring 4,158.69 on the Societal Mobility Rating.
