Etymology
Gribzobland is named after Legendary Stanward; Gribzobstanward. When the nation was founded, Winstanward named this region after one of his close friends. If Gribzobstanward were to ever visit Bilbarstan, the position of Emir of Gribzobland will be passed onto him. This is stated in the constitution of the nation.

Those who dislike the fact that this Sub-Division is named after Gribzobstanward instead refer to the region as "Central Bilbarstan", or "Engeland".

Geography
Gribzobland is similar in climate to the rest of the nation, being arid, which hills splitting the region in two from North to South.

Other than the ___ range, the region has two discernible features, these being Engelstanlake, and Gribzobay. Engelstanlake is largest lake on the island, being named after the Legendary Stanward; Engelstanbert, Gribzobay having the same etymological roots as the region, and city that encircles it.

Engelstanlake is the primary freshwater source for the country, scientists are yet to explain how this lake was able to form with virtually no traces of saltwater, while locals believe that it is a sign that the Stanward people are destined to live here.
