The Commonwealth of The Isle of Grossmania is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Maestro with an even hand, and renowned for its parental licensing program, irreverence towards religion, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate population of 17.8 billion Grossmen have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The enormous government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Kelsingtown. The average income tax rate is 88.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Isle of Grossmanian economy, worth a remarkable 1,952 trillion Credits a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Retail. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 109,710 Credits, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Sex-ed is child's play, treaties are taken to be mere rules of thumb, kindergartners' favourite dance move is the stop-drop-and-roll, and government ministers have eclectic tastes in curtains. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. The Isle of Grossmania's national animal is the Tigger, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

The Isle of Grossmania is ranked 9,151st in the world and 487th in Lazarus for Most Cultured, scoring 123 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
