Overview • People • Government • Economy • Trend • Analysis

The Sleeping Cats of Greybrow is a gargantuan, safe nation, ruled by Humble One with an even hand, and remarkable for its unlimited-speed roads. Its hard-nosed, hard-working, intelligent population of 11.873 billion enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

There is no government in the normal sense of the word; however, a small group of community-minded individuals juggles the competing demands of Education, Law & Order, and the Environment. Income tax is unheard of. A powerhouse of a private sector is led by the Information Technology industry, followed by Tourism and Book Publishing.

Cars speed down national highways while drivers sleep at the wheel, scientists regularly clone human beings for research purposes, businesses often fire workers in favour of cheaper automatic systems, and photographers have to apply for a license to photograph Humble One. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Greybrow's national animal is the cat, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its currency is the none.

Greybrow is ranked 274th in Capitalist Paradise and 94,428th in the world for Most Compassionate Citizens, scoring -307 on the Kitten Softness Rating.
