The Kingdom of Haremm is a titanic, cultured nation, ruled by King Makoto with an even hand, and remarkable for its museums and concert halls, zero percent divorce rate, and multi-spousal wedding ceremonies. The compassionate, devout population of 11.681 billion Haremmians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Okuzawa. The average income tax rate is 97.6%.

The frighteningly efficient Haremish economy, worth a remarkable 2,203 trillion remies a year, is quite specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Basket Weaving. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 188,600 remies, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Finders keepers is the law of the land, the government is on the side of working people (like CEOs, bankers and billionaires), the saying "when pigs fly" has been changed to "when the lights work", and volunteers are signing up to take arms against an incursion of flesh-eating zombies (Haremm has found 8 easter eggs). Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Haremm's national animal is the pegasus, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Haremm is ranked 3,575th in the world and 4th in Spiritus for Largest Publishing Industry, scoring 20,852.59 on the Bella Potter Productivity e-Index.
