The Grand Duchy of -Harren is a massive, orderly nation, notable for its frequent executions, daily referendums, and keen interest in outer space. The cynical, devout population of 2.458 billion -Harrenians 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 large government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Industry. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 65.5%.

The all-consuming -Harrenian economy, worth 196 trillion Provincial Talers a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Tourism, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Average income is 79,677 Provincial Talers, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 254,233 per year while the poor average 18,983, a ratio of 13.4 to 1.

There's a hole in the heart of every -Harrenian city, spoiler warnings are now given out before political speeches, -Harren's fine wines are renowned throughout the region, and foreign policy is mostly just to smile and hope for the best. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. -Harren's national animal is the Local Labrador, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

-Harren is ranked 47,633rd in the world and 8th in Urcea for Most Developed, scoring 78.12 on the Human Development Index.
