The Grimms Hollow of Isle Alexandra is a titanic, efficient nation, ruled by Hikari with an iron fist, and remarkable for its ban on automobiles, feral children, and avowedly heterosexual populace. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 19.676 billion Isle Alexandrans 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 enormous, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Spirituality, Law & Order, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Aithne. The average income tax rate is 89.2%.

The frighteningly efficient Isle Alexandran economy, worth a remarkable 2,375 trillion gold coins a year, is quite specialized and led by the Basket Weaving industry, with major contributions from Uranium Mining, Furniture Restoration, and Arms Manufacturing. Black market activity is rampant. Average income is an impressive 120,756 gold coins, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.2 times as much as the poorest.

The government recently relinquished its monopoly on the mail service, serial killers share cells with serial jaywalkers, the finest dining experience in Isle Alexandra is chakra-infused grass, and a nickname of "Doctor Death" probably indicates a decorated war hero. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Isle Alexandra's national animal is the siren, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Castianity.

Isle Alexandra is ranked 49,664th in the world and 313th in Europeia for Highest Poor Incomes, with 55,605.22 Standard Monetary Units.
