About Graustarks
The Dictatorship of Graustarks is a large, orderly nation, renowned for its compulsory military service and complete lack of prisons. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 62 million Graustarksians are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.
The medium-sized, corrupt, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, although Industry, Public Transport, and Healthcare are also considered important, while Spirituality and International Aid are ignored.
Citizens are allowed to rise or fall based on their own merits, the world outside is only known of in folklore, and science centers and state of the art laboratories are ubiquitous. Crime, especially youth-related, is almost non-existent, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Spreading religion is often frowned upon in Graustarks as children are typically raised to be atheists, Most Graustarkians are not respectful towards religions and fights may break when the two meet as Graustarkians are almost always raised to be aggressive.
