The Republic of Harmonycries is a mid-sized, safe nation, remarkable for its barren, inhospitable landscape. The hard-working, democratic, devout population of 94 million Harmonycriesians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The relatively small government prioritizes Spirituality, with Defense, Law & Order, and Public Transport also on the agenda, while Welfare receives no funds. The average income tax rate is 22.0%.

The Harmonycriesian economy, worth 4.55 trillion bitcoins a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Uranium Mining industry, with major contributions from Retail, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 48,365 bitcoins, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.7 times as much as the poorest.

Internet service is too costly for normal people to purchase, TV coverage of music festivals consists mostly of backstage interviews, almost all of the nation's water is piped into the country from abroad for exorbitant prices, and Leader has been seen stealthily slicing fifths off bread loaves. Crime is relatively low, thanks to a capable police force. Harmonycries's national animal is the dove, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution.

Harmonycries is ranked 163,934^th in the world and 70^th in Aeternas for Most Advanced Defense Forces, scoring 1,346.53 on the Total War Preparedness Rating.
