The Republic of Gravatas is a massive, genial nation, ruled by The communion of advisors and advocates with a fair hand, and renowned for its pith helmet sales, national health service, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic population of 1.06 billion Gravatasians enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Tonisland. The average income tax rate is 30.9%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Gravatasian economy, worth 108 trillion Dizas a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Retail, and Uranium Mining. Black market activity is notable. Average income is an impressive 102,046 Dizas, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

It's a long jump to get onto the housing ladder, a cat may look at a king and a dude can look at an ass, the government has started a campaign to crack down on road rage and encourage alternate means of commuting, and a government program is underway to revitalize Gravatas's beaches. Crime is totally unknown. Gravatas's national animal is the Mantis, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Gravatas is ranked 55,315^th in the world and 1,369^th in the Rejected Realms for Most Advanced Public Education, scoring 3,962.45 on the Edu-tellignce® Test Score.
