The Kingdom of Granseal is a titanic, cultured nation, ruled by King Granseal with an even hand, and notable for its free-roaming dinosaurs, ubiquitous missile silos, and unlimited-speed roads. The hard-nosed, hard-working, devout population of 22.601 billion Gransealians are either ruled by a sleek, efficient government or a conglomerate of multinational corporations; it's difficult to tell which.

The relatively small, pro-business government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Defense, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Granseal Castle. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 8.0%.

The frighteningly efficient Gransealian economy, worth a remarkable 2,726 trillion Golds a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Retail, and Gambling. Average income is an impressive 120,649 Golds, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 348,408 per year while the poor average 33,146, a ratio of 10.5 to 1.

Drugs containing the compound "oleum de serpens" are being sold to cancer patients, major boxing matches are held in government buildings, every day has been a surprise since weather reporters turned to consulting ancient totems for their seven-day forecasts, and with increasingly clear skies nobody seems to mind the electricity bill going through the roof. Crime is moderate, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Granseal's national animal is the Tortoise, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is MitulaVolcanonanity.

Granseal is ranked 328,699^th in the world and 18^th in Sheriffmuir for Largest Welfare Programs, scoring -15.49 on the Safety Net Mesh Density Rating.
