The Borderlands of Grey-68 is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, remarkable for its burgeoning hawk population. The hard-nosed, hard-working population of 1.303 billion Grey-68ians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Welfare. The average income tax rate is 16.5%.

The Grey-68ian economy, worth 60.2 trillion bits a year, is led by the Beef-Based Agriculture industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Woodchip Exports, and Soda Sales. Average income is 46,189 bits, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.6 times as much as the poorest.

Crime is moderate. Grey-68's national animal is the hawk, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Grey-68 is ranked 94,432^nd in the world and 4,547^th in Balder for Most Beautiful Environments, with 573.34 pounds of wildlife per square mile.
