The State of Grey Lord is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, notable for its compulsory military service, state-planned economy, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, cynical population of 30.47 billion Grey Lordians are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked, socially-minded, well-organized morass — juggles the competing demands of Spirituality, Welfare, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Capital Heights. The average income tax rate is 75.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The large but underdeveloped Grey Lordian economy, worth 873 trillion betales a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is broadly diversified, is led by the Uranium Mining industry, with major contributions from Trout Farming, Book Publishing, and Woodchip Exports. Average income is 28,654 betales, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Organ donation is compulsory, gambling is outlawed, the mining industry is making inroads into environmentally sensitive areas, and Grey Lord has designated Capital Heights as its capital city. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Grey Lord's national animal is the deer, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Grey Lord is ranked 93,124th in the world and 1st in Belize for Lowest Crime Rates, with 66.75 law-abiding acts per hour.
