The Second Republic of Grey Goods is a massive, cultured nation, ruled by Mister Grey with an even hand, and notable for its multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, frequent executions, and devotion to social welfare. The hard-nosed population of 2.014 billion Grey Goodsians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

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 78.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Grey Goodsian economy, worth 262 trillion Grey Dollars a year, is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Tourism. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 130,217 Grey Dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

RPG fans reminisce fondly about when people thought they were evil and dangerous rather than geeky and socially inept, police officers often conceal their identities to safeguard against public complaints, the nation is ravaged by daily union strikes, and old dogs don't have to learn new tricks but they have to prove they haven't forgotten old ones. 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 223,391^st in the world and 180^th in Nordic Lands for Highest Disposable Incomes, with 28,257.14 Standard Monetary Units.
