The Grinches Who Stole Christmas of Occupied Whoville is a gargantuan, orderly nation, notable for its pith helmet sales, keen interest in outer space, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, hard-working, cynical, devout population of 17.428 billion Occupied Whovilleans 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 large, corrupt, well-organized government prioritizes Law & Order, although Education, Industry, and Administration are also considered important, while Spirituality is ignored. The average income tax rate is 44.7%.

The powerhouse Occupied Whovillean economy, worth 800 trillion seusses a year, is quite specialized and led by the Woodchip Exports industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Automobile Manufacturing, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Black market activity is frequent. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 45,911 seusses, with the richest citizens earning 5.2 times as much as the poorest.

The fattest folk in Occupied Whoville look to be the happiest ones, the arms industry is backed by government subsidies and harsh anti-protest laws are in place, Leader's former secretary was last sighted on her new yacht, and scientists are not permitted to ask questions. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Occupied Whoville's national animal is the lorax, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Occupied Whoville is ranked 276,818th in the world and 5,415th in the Rejected Realms for Most Secular, with 10.83 Atheism Rate.
