The Dictatorship of Gre Thesenttemer is a titanic, orderly nation, remarkable for its frequent executions, keen interest in outer space, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, cynical, devout population of 14.468 billion Gre Thesenttemerians 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, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Industry. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 51.6%.

The thriving Gre Thesenttemerian economy, worth 957 trillion dollars a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Trout Farming industry, with significant contributions from Beef-Based Agriculture, Tourism, and Woodchip Exports. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 66,147 dollars, with the richest citizens earning 5.5 times as much as the poorest.

Holidays are regarded as the most miserable time of the year, the nation's interest in space is at an all-time high while interest in saving the planet is at an all-time low, armed security details escort librarians to their homes, and popular cartoon characters frequently appear in government-sponsored PSAs reminding students to say no to drugs. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Gre Thesenttemer's national animal is the wolf.

Gre Thesenttemer is ranked 178,162^nd in the world and 1,204^th in The catholic military orders for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 63.89 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
