The Empire of Greygard is a gargantuan, genial nation, ruled by Arcturus Nott with an even hand, and renowned for its museums and concert halls, daily referendums, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 13.929 billion Greygardians enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The enormous, liberal, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Astonia. The average income tax rate is 95.1%.

The frighteningly efficient Greygardian economy, worth a remarkable 1,928 trillion Drakons a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism and Book Publishing. Average income is an impressive 138,452 Drakons, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

It is believed that belligerence is a passing phase foreign leaders will soon outgrow, mountain rescue missions can end with more people lost than found, the nation's air force consists of strongly-worded letters folded into paper airplanes, and conductors wield diamond-encrusted batons to fit in with their freshly gilded surroundings. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Greygard's national animal is the Brown Wolf, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Greygard is ranked 4,224^th in the world and 182^nd in Lazarus for Highest Food Quality, scoring 219.47 on the Meeshlin-Starr Index.
