The Republic of Furth GER is a huge, efficient nation, renowned for its compulsory military service, irreverence towards religion, and suspicion of poets. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 847 million Furth GERians are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Administration. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 24.2%.

The very strong Furth GERian economy, worth 56.0 trillion euros a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Cheese Exports, and Furniture Restoration. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 66,075 euros, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 231,033 per year while the poor average 13,733, a ratio of 16.8 to 1.

Virtual assistants are seen with increasing suspicion every time they get an upgrade, the roads are notorious throughout the region for their peril, councils up and down the country wrangle over legal matters, and Leader has just been declared ruler of Furth GER in an international press conference. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Furth GER's national animal is the eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Furth GER is ranked 129,658^th in the world and 577^th in Aerospace for Most Subsidized Industry, scoring 820.35 on the Gilded Widget Scale.
