The United Kingdoms of Grays Harbor is a gargantuan, safe nation, ruled by King Paul-Emil II with an even hand, and notable for its public floggings, pith helmet sales, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cheerful, devout population of 29.097 billion Harberians 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 medium-sized, corrupt government is dominated by the Department of Defense, although Law & Order, Education, and Industry are also considered important, while Social Policy and Spirituality aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Aberdeen. The average income tax rate is 94.6%.

The frighteningly efficient Harberian economy, worth a remarkable 6,467 trillion Crowns a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Automobile Manufacturing, Book Publishing, and Basket Weaving. Average income is an amazing 222,262 Crowns, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.2 times as much as the poorest.

King Paul-Emil II is described as an everyday person with normal tastes and the usual interests, prime commercial land is being swamped with archaeological teams, the nation's prisons are touted as the best weight loss programs money can't buy, and fighter pilots crash out of the air after failing to understand their foreign instruction manuals. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Grays Harbor's national animal is the Baycat, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Harberian Catholic.

Grays Harbor is ranked 36^th in the world and 2^nd in Texas for Most Efficient Economies, scoring 100 on the Krugman-Greenspan Business Outlook Index.
