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 free-roaming dinosaurs, pith helmet sales, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, cynical, devout population of 11.004 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 78.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Harpiatopian economy, worth 972 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 88,345 Ducal Reais, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Police are trained in using their steel-capped boots as a tool of law enforcement, nuclear submarines have been deployed to protect the nation's banana supply, state-sanctioned torture is okay so long as there's no icky blood, and the military sees national borders more as guidelines than absolutes. 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 33,290^th in the world and 731^st in The East Pacific for Lowest Crime Rates, with 80.82 law-abiding acts per hour.
