The Republic of Weird Harold is a massive, orderly nation, remarkable for its compulsory military service, ritual sacrifices, and restrictive gun laws. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 2.495 billion Weird Haroldians 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, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Administration, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Saturnalia. The average income tax rate is 37.2%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but inefficient Weird Haroldian economy, worth 74.4 trillion marks a year, is quite specialized and led by the Woodchip Exports industry, with significant contributions from Uranium Mining, Retail, and Soda Sales. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 29,811 marks, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.0 times as much as the poorest.

Nations that kill a Weird Haroldian can expect a strongly worded letter, the average commuter spends four hours a day driving to and from work, illegal book-trafficking rings dominate the black market, and children deemed 'disorderly' or otherwise unfit for public schools are shipped off to military academies. Crime, especially youth-related, is well under control, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Weird Harold's national animal is the falcon, which can occasionally be seen dodging aircraft in the nation's cities.

Weird Harold is ranked 265,148^th in the world and 30^th in Sphere of Conservative Republics for Nicest Citizens, with 7.52 average smiles per day.
