The Republic of Space grapes is a very large, genial nation, notable for its compulsory military service and irreverence towards religion. The hard-working, democratic population of 286 million Space grapesians enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Defense, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 13.6%.

The Space grapesian economy, worth 11.4 trillion Grapeses a year, is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Trout Farming, Automobile Manufacturing, and Book Publishing. Average income is 39,818 Grapeses, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.1 times as much as the poorest.

TV shows must meet strict ethnicity quotas, all major public areas are watched by police surveillance cameras, thieves claim they're simply working for the tax agency, and kindhearted Space grapesians generously pay taxes for citizens of other countries. Crime, especially youth-related, is well under control. Space grapes's national animal is the Moon.

Space grapes is ranked 86,899^th in the world and 10^th in Sycord Plume for Largest Manufacturing Sector, scoring 13,000.05 on the Gooback-Jerbs Productivity Index.
