The Rogue Nation of Glurp is a massive, cultured nation, ruled by Adraska Nocto with a fair hand, and notable for its museums and concert halls, daily referendums, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic population of 3.384 billion Glurpians love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Mount Thebes. The average income tax rate is 79.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The thriving Glurpian economy, worth 275 trillion dollars a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Pizza Delivery, Book Publishing, and Tourism. Average income is 81,410 dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Guide dogs for the blind have been seen using government websites, government reports are now used to teach toddlers to read, fraternities are notorious for drunken hooliganism, and election results are often delayed for weeks to count the expat votes. Crime is totally unknown. Glurp's national animal is the penguin, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans, and its national religion is Glurpian Malorthodox Coven.

Glurp is ranked 277,803rd in the world and 347th in Eurth for Most Patriotic, with 0.57 flags saluted per person per day.
