The People's Republic of Konigsberg Oblast is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Atilla with an iron fist, and notable for its pith helmet sales, compulsory military service, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 4.651 billion Konigsberg Oblastians are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

The medium-sized, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Kaliningrad. The average income tax rate is 37.6%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The Konigsberg Oblastian economy, worth 279 trillion Kopecks a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Trout Farming, and Arms Manufacturing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 60,187 Kopecks, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Wars of expansion are described as "peacekeeping operations", it takes months to get the proper permits for a child's first tricycle, gay hospital patients are labelled with a pink triangle to alert staff of their substandard blood, and the government is spending millions on renovating the public transportation system. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Konigsberg Oblast's national animal is the Prussian Black Eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Konigsberg Oblast is ranked 178,600th in the world and 216th in The Region That Has No Big Banks for Highest Foreign Aid Spending, scoring zero on the Clooney Contribution Index.
