** It doesn't help that Gregoryisgodistan has falsely claimed to assassinate several world leaders before as well as ridiculously inflating death totals from their solar-powered bombs by six to seven ''orders of magnitude''.

** They also once executed a soccer player for missing a penalty kick in the Cup of Harmony final that would have continued the shootout. That, and they have "literally fired" more than a few soccer coaches, two of whom were actually burned at the stake and one of whom was fired out of a cannon and over a cliff.



* EtTuBrute: Whenever an athlete gets executed for poor performance and there is an executioner on the team, guess who does it? And when they fired the soccer coach over a cliff to his death for his poor performance, the cannon they used was borrowed from the circus by midfielder [[FailOSuckyName Guy Who Cleans Up Behind The Elephant at the Circus P0120AZNNAU]].

Added DiffLines:

** They also accidentally framed Feministvs Sanctvsterra for assassinating the Consul of the Free Republics.
*** It was much more complicated than that. Gregoryisgodistani assassins killed Consul Piazza prior to a soccer match in the Free Republics. Just before halftime, an assassin from an underground terrorist group known as The Brotherhood attempted to assassinate Samuel Izmailov, considered a favorite for the next Consul election, but was caught. Rather than being forced to admit the truth under torture, she falsely claimed to be a member of Feministvs Sanctvsterra and took responsibility for both assassinations. [[CassandraTruth As a result, nobody outside Gregoryisgodistan believes their claims that they assassinated the Consul.]]
*** Gregoryisgodistan had absolutely zero incentive to frame Feministvs Sanctvsterra for the crime, considering it nearly led to the downfall of the one organization capable of overthrowing the Church of Saintland, Gregoryisgodistan's ArchEnemy.
** Lord Almighty Gregory has pointed out the FridgeLogic in the claim that the same individual who killed Piazza tried to kill Izmailov as well - Piazza was killed with a gun, so why wouldn't the killer shoot Izmailov dead instantly rather than stab him and risk getting caught before he was dead (which was exactly what happened)?

** The national football and ice hockey teams have Enemy Crushers who play for them and will regularly crush referees for making calls that go against them, fans for heckling them, or opponents for no good reason at all.

* SexSlave: Check.

to:

* RapeIsASpecialKindOfEvil: ZigZagged. Sex crimes are treated severely enough that the offender's privates are cut off by a Pervert Chaser prior to the (usual) execution. However, the definition of "sex crime" is broad enough to include not just rape and molestation but also streaking, mooning, indecent exposure, and being in public without a shirt, all of which are also capital crimes.
** Not all sex crimes are capital offenses. For instance, telling a sexual joke is punishable by an additional fine of 50,000 greggygodbucks (only about three dollars due to hyperinflation creating RidiculousExchangeRates), while drawing pictures of genitalia will also get you six months of slave labor. Both are still punishable by dickapitation and castration.
*RidiculousExchangeRates: The current exchange rate is about 15,000 greggygodbucks to one dollar, with the currency being consistently more and more devalued due to hyperinflation. This led to an incident where a football referee was given a one million greggygodbuck speeding ticket on the way to a game and died of a heart attack due to the shock at seeing the amount. At the time, 1 million greggygodbucks was only about 135 dollars, and now it's half that.
* SexSlave: Check. Some of them even compete (and occasionally win medals) at the Olympics.



* YouAreNumberSix: Commoners' names consist of their job title plus a government ID sequence, for instance Plumber KL0030ASDP. Only government VIPs get real names, and even those are preceded by their job title. Only Lord Almighty Gregory himself and his wife Cleffie Martinez do not have names which follow that format.

!!This Roleplay contains examples of:
* AGodAmI: Lord Almighty Gregory in a nutshell.
* AirstripOne: Instead of city and town names, there are 36 numbered Districts, each with a number of Wards, which also have numbers.
* ArsonMurderAndJaywalking: The [[http://www.nationstates.net/nation=gregoryisgodistan/detail=factbook/id=144272 long list]] of capital crimes in Gregoryisgodistan, including the three in the trope name, assault, saying the word "coconut", farting, sneezing, treason, and about a hundred other things.
* BigBrotherIsWatching: There are spy cameras in every home. Attempting to locate or disable them is a capital crime, as is accidentally disabling them.
* DoesThisRemindYouOfAnything: The country itself, including many claims about Lord Almighty Gregory (such as him never pooping) is based on North Korea.
** Many of the crazy capital crimes are based on crimes elsewhere. For instance, chewing gum is illegal in Singapore, and riding an ugly horse is illegal in Wilbur, Washington, though neither of those are capital crimes in real life.
* EvenEvilHasStandards: Even though Gregoryigodistan is one of the most evil nations in the multiverse, it is very critical of Saintland's oppression of women. In Gregoryisgodistan, men and women have equal rights (albeit not many, unless they are government VIPs) and the government is strongly critical of any nation whose laws say otherwise.

* GrammarNazi: Or rather, Grammar Enforcement Officer, who will round you up and send you to a Reeducation Camp if you use bad grammmar.
* HumanSacrifice: Citizens are randomly selected for Human Sacrifice in a matter similar to jury duty. Apparently they consider this an honor.
* SexSlave: Check.
* SuspiciouslySpecificDenial: Invoked many times, such as "We do not drug our gruel with mind control drugs. Anyone who says that is a liar." Often linked directly to the trope page.
** They even once said "This is not a suspiciously specific denial."
* YouAreNumberSix: Commoners' names consist of their job title plus a government ID sequence, for instance Plumber KL0030ASDP.
