The Republic of Harma (R.O.H. or ROH), commonly known as the Federated Isles (F.I. or FI) or Harma, is an island nation and trade federation located in Southern Concord. Surrounded entirely by the Harma Channel, it consists of 2 island republics and 27 provinces, of which include 4 major federal island districts, a further five major unincorporated territories and two minor outlying islands. The national capital is Tarino, and the most populous city is Gethua. The financial and trade center of Harma is Shinrarta Dezhra.
Paleo-Concordians migrated from mainland Concord to the islands around 12,000 years ago, and by the 16th century, eighteen technologically advanced tribes in the region formed a collective tribal federation. Their technological advancement was known to have been influenced by civilized nations from the Concord continent, wanting to establish a new order on the islands for trade purposes.
The Republic of Harma is a federated semi-presidential parliamentary republic, with four separate branches of government, including a unicameral legislature and a Trade Congress. Considered a melting pot of cultures and ethnicities, its population has been profoundly shaped by centuries of immigration. The Republic of Harma ranks high in international measures of economic freedom, quality of life, education, and human rights; it has low levels of perceived corruption. However, scholars have criticized it for racial, wealth, and income inequality, and its use of corporal punishment and mass incarceration.
