“We stand together for a better tomorrow”

The Federal Republic of Greal is a colossal, safe nation, renowned for its prohibition of alcohol. Its hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 5.563 billion 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.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent, corrupt government stops and the rest of society begins, but it devotes most of its attentions to Defence, with areas such as Religion & Spirituality and the Environment receiving almost no funds by comparison. It meets every day to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Sasha. The average income tax rate is 100%. A powerhouse of a private sector is led by the Arms Manufacturing, Uranium Mining, and Automobile Manufacturing industries.

Speaking out against the government is punishable by flogging, billions of Greal Dollars are being blown on orbital weapons development, construction of the Really Big Hadron Collider is underway, and the government is pouring funds into the nation's welfare system. Crime -- especially youth-related -- is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Greal's national animal is the Blackish Blue Tiger, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its currency is the Greal Dollar.

Greal is ranked 46th in the region and 54,512th in the world for Highest Unemployment Rates.
