The First Galactic Empire of Gray Army is a gargantuan, orderly nation, ruled by Emperor Sturnn with an iron fist, and remarkable for its anti-smoking policies, smutty television, and irreverence towards religion. The cynical, humorless population of 41.691 billion Gray Armyites are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The large, corrupt government prioritizes Defense, although Law & Order, Healthcare, and Education are also considered important, while Social Policy and Environment receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Crassus. The average income tax rate is 98.6%.

The frighteningly efficient Gray Armyian economy, worth a remarkable 9,429 trillion Imperial Credits a year, is highly specialized and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Uranium Mining, Information Technology, and Woodchip Exports. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 226,171 Imperial Credits, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The nation's hospitals are criticized for caring more about profits than patients, the police have been swamped with requests to stay up past bedtime, there has been a series of riots between local cannibals and health food advocates, and all writing must pass a censorship board before being allowed on the shelves. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Gray Army's national animal is the Gorog, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Imperial Cult.

Gray Army is ranked 293,305th in the world and 1st in The New Galactic Empire for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring -30.76 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
