The Federal Republic of Grey Goods is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by Mister Grey with an even hand, and remarkable for its pith helmet sales, ubiquitous missile silos, and compulsory gun ownership. The hard-nosed population of 1.887 billion Grey Goodsians 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 large government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Administration, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Greytopia. The average income tax rate is 74.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Grey Goodsian economy, worth 242 trillion Grey Dollars a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Tourism. Average income is an impressive 128,633 Grey Dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The price of takeaway food quadruples after 6pm, it's harder to qualify for IVF than for a good university, twins move across the country to avoid being accused of the other's crimes, and a sledgehammer and a spray can are seen as the default tools of political debate. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Grey Goods's national animal is the Grey Whale, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans, and its national religion is Atheism.

Grey Goods is ranked 294,779th in the world and 6,546th in the Rejected Realms for Most Primitive, scoring -280.88 on the Scary Big Number Scale.
