The Grand Duchy of Harpiatopia is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Grand Duchess Papi Páez V with an iron fist, and renowned for its strictly enforced bedtime, ubiquitous missile silos, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, cynical, devout population of 11.115 billion Harpiatopians are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The enormous, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Defense, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Harpylia. The average income tax rate is 79.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Harpiatopian economy, worth 962 trillion Ducal Reais a year, is quite specialized and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Information Technology, and Furniture Restoration. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 86,622 Ducal Reais, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

State-sanctioned torture is okay so long as there's no icky blood, the military sees national borders more as guidelines than absolutes, for 25 Ducal Reais tourists can gawk at the site of national tragedy, and heretic deviants are free to practice their deviance outside of Harpiatopia. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Harpiatopia's national animal is the Chicken, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is The Catholic Church.

Harpiatopia is ranked 21,053^rd in the world and 420^th in The East Pacific for Highest Foreign Aid Spending, scoring 1,141.85 on the Clooney Contribution Index.
