The Commonwealth of Greylyn is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, remarkable for its free-roaming dinosaurs, daily referendums, and soft-spoken computers. The compassionate, democratic population of 11.761 billion Greylynians enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked, socially-minded morass — juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Aros. The average income tax rate is 95.2%.

The frighteningly efficient Greylynian economy, worth a remarkable 1,274 trillion credits 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 led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Tourism, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is an impressive 108,382 credits, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The government has pinkie-promised never to use its veto power except in an emergency, tax-payers are funding ever more extravagant movie projects, the carbon tax fund gladly supplies warm blankets when the poor can't pay their heating bills, and in life full of care there is no time to stop and stare. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Greylyn's national animal is the sea turtle, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans, and its national religion is Secularism.

Greylyn is ranked 12,822nd in the world and 155th in The Leftist Assembly for Safest, scoring 118.13 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
