Gloriana XII-The Original Wolf of Wall Street.

Grand Fenwick is at it again, this time upsetting the world's economy.

The tiny country's secret weapon this time is its Grand Pinot chewing gum.

When sales boom during an anti-smoking campaign, Grand Fenwick's investment is suddenly worth millions.
