The Republic of Alharatz is a huge, environmentally stunning nation, renowned for its irreverence towards religion, punitive income tax rates, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic population of 965 million Alharatzians enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The medium-sized government prioritizes Education, although Industry, Law & Order, and Administration are also considered important, while Spirituality and International Aid receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Berlin. The average income tax rate is 55.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming Alharatzian economy, worth 100 trillion euros a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Trout Farming, and Retail. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 104,463 euros, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

East Lebatuckese astronauts' favorite game during downtime on the Multinational Space Station is 'I Spy', it is illegal to distribute Girl Guide Cookies without an advanced food hygiene diploma, it is considered unpatriotic to learn a foreign language, and there's a bright dawn ahead for Alharatz. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Alharatz's national animal is the bear, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Alharatz is ranked 22,015^th in the world and 338^th in Europe for Safest, scoring 112.99 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
