The Republic of East Harkway is a huge, socially progressive nation, remarkable for its multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, devotion to social welfare, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic population of 373 million Harkians love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.
The enormous, socially-minded, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Capybara City. The average income tax rate is 74.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The sizeable but underdeveloped East Harkwayian economy, worth 14.0 trillion harks a year, is quite specialized and dominated by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Cheese Exports, and Arms Manufacturing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 37,589 harks, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Skateboarding is considered a form of diplomacy, homophobia is off the menu, the nation's universities are often mistaken for foreign embassies, and glamping Harkians won't sleep in a tent that doesn't include a Jacuzzi. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. East Harkway's national animal is the Capybara, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.
East Harkway is ranked 66,296th in the world and 459th in 10000 Islands for Most Advanced Public Education, scoring 3,305.06 on the Edu-tellignce® Test Score.
