The Confederacy of Far Harbor is a very large, efficient nation, renowned for its ubiquitous missile silos, enslaved workforce, and free-roaming dinosaurs. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic, humorless population of 477 million Harborers are free to succeed or fail in life on their own merits; the successful tend to enjoy an opulent (but moralistic) lifestyle, while the failures can be seen crowding out most jails.

The tiny, corrupt, pro-business government prioritizes Defense, with Industry, Law & Order, and Education also on the agenda, while Spirituality and Welfare receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of New Anchorage. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 4.4%.

The frighteningly efficient Harborian economy, worth 63.3 trillion Far Harbor Dollars a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Retail industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, and Uranium Mining. Average income is an impressive 132,638 Far Harbor Dollars, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 1,063,973 per year while the poor average 3,827, a ratio of 278 to 1.

Far Harbor has become a gigantic dustbowl filled with tourists and mean desperados, diplomatic fallout tends to be much more dangerous than radioactive fallout, the moon's craters are more numerous every day, and charity workers dole out hardtack from behind designer sunglasses. Crime is moderate, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Far Harbor's national animal is the Fog Crawler, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Far Harbor is ranked 51,656th in the world and 3rd in BUCHAREST CITY for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring 4,699.91 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
