The Love you all 💖 of Grandfather Clock is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Grand Clocksmith with an even hand, and renowned for its teetotalling pirates, compulsory vegetarianism, and lack of airports. The hard-nosed, hard-working, humorless population of 9.005 billion Grandfather Clocks 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 medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic government is primarily concerned with Industry, with Healthcare, Environment, and Public Transport also on the agenda, while Welfare and Administration are ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Clockworks Central. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 24.4%.

The frighteningly efficient a Grandfather Clock economy, worth 723 trillion verges a year, is dominated by the Cheese Exports industry, with significant contributions from Furniture Restoration, Woodchip Exports, and Basket Weaving. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 80,305 verges, with the richest citizens earning 6.0 times as much as the poorest.

Footballers are doing aerobics in the sauna to build their hot weather endurance, the elderly are killed softly with a song, religious figures have been banned from public holidays to make them more multicultural, and female newsreaders distract the nation by breastfeeding during broadcast. Crime is all-pervasive, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Grandfather Clock's national animal is the pendulum, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is punctuality.

Grandfather Clock is ranked 274,407^th in the world and 1,278^th in Europeia for Most Cheerful Citizens, with 35.59 Percentage Of Water Glasses Perceived Half-Full.
