The Community of Graceful Harmony is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Balleticee with an even hand, and renowned for its rum-swilling pirates, otherworldly petting zoo, and restrictive gun laws. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 12.558 billion Harmonians enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The enormous government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Elegant City. The average income tax rate is 97.6%.

The frighteningly efficient Harmonian economy, worth a remarkable 1,691 trillion Coins a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing and Tourism. Average income is an impressive 134,715 Coins, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The government is washing its hands of alleged corruption, earthquake sirens are a leading cause of hearing loss, Balleticee has promised 'power to the puppies', and visiting dignitaries often end up cuddling in the hot tub with Balleticee. Crime is totally unknown. Graceful Harmony's national animal is the Quokka, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Graceful Harmony is ranked 289,773rd in the world and 11,011th in Osiris for Most Corrupt Governments, with 0.32 kickbacks per hour.
