The Republic of Grey Island is a colossal, efficient nation, remarkable for its free-roaming dinosaurs, parental licensing program, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 6.94 billion Grey Islandians are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.

The medium-sized, corrupt, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Administration. The average income tax rate is 60.0%.

The frighteningly efficient Grey Islandian economy, worth 956 trillion Dollars a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a large, well-organized, broadly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Woodchip Exports. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an impressive 137,785 Dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.9 times as much as the poorest.

Wrongful arrests abound as 'criminals' blame the guy next to them, scientists regularly clone human beings for research purposes, foreign leaders' Twitcher accounts are monitored for potential threats to national security, and stranded mountaineers can watch livestreamed footage of their rescues. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Grey Island's national animal is the Grey Goose, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Grey Island is ranked 47,345^th in the world and 191^st in The grimy backyard of Bigej for Highest Disposable Incomes, with 55,114.2 Standard Monetary Units.
