The United Kingdoms of Grays Harbor is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by King Paul-Emil II with an even hand, and renowned for its compulsory military service, unlimited-speed roads, and sprawling nuclear power plants. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cheerful, devout population of 33.373 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, with Law & Order, Education, and Industry also on the agenda, while Social Policy and Spirituality receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Aberdeen. The average income tax rate is 93.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Harberian economy, worth a remarkable 8,130 trillion Crowns a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Automobile Manufacturing. Average income is an amazing 243,614 Crowns, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.4 times as much as the poorest.

It is illegal for a parent to tell a child to stop eating their boogers, children are often punished for the sins of the fathers, Harberian actors literally work from cradle to grave, and straitjackets are a common religious garb. 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 frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Harberian Catholic.

Grays Harbor is ranked 25,881^st in the world and 40^th in Texas for Highest Drug Use, scoring 95.2 on the Pineapple Fondness Rating.
