The Grievous Gang of Gremlins is a mammoth, socially progressive nation, remarkable for its state-planned economy, devotion to social welfare, and stringent health and safety legislation. The democratic population of 7.966 billion Gremlins are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The enormous, liberal, socially-minded, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Education, and Defense. The average income tax rate is 65.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The large but stagnant Gremlin economy, worth 146 trillion Food after Midnights a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a slick, highly efficient, quite specialized black market in Pizza Delivery, Retail, Tourism, and Soda Sales. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is 18,280 Food after Midnights, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Gremlins's national animal is the Mogwai, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Gremlins is ranked 204,131^st in the world and 1^st in Global Imperial Federation for Most Extensive Public Healthcare, scoring 940.18 on the Theresa-Nightingale Rating.
