The Grapes of Wrath of TGC-2 is a gargantuan, orderly nation, renowned for its public floggings, digital currency, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 21.45 billion TGC-2ians 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 medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Industry, and Healthcare. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 39.3%.

The all-consuming TGC-2ian economy, worth a remarkable 1,964 trillion $$s a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Information Technology. Black market activity is extensive. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 91,582 $$s, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 266,000 per year while the poor average 24,958, a ratio of 10.7 to 1.

Six-year-old children playing dress-up are viewed with suspicion, advertisements read like science journal articles complete with extensive references, shaken martini sales have soared in nations surrounding TGC-2, and a ban on robots in disguise has transformed the entertainment industry. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. TGC-2's national animal is the Dolly Varden, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

TGC-2 is ranked 81,255th in the world and 1st in The Gulf Coast for Most Stationary, with 596.6947917262 days.
