The Democratic Republic of Deutschia is a huge, orderly nation, renowned for its state-planned economy, punitive income tax rates, and stringent health and safety legislation. The cynical population of 925 million deutsches are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."
The enormous, moralistic, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Law & Order, and Defense. The average income tax rate is 72.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The sizeable but stagnant deutsche economy, worth 6.36 trillion marks a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Book Publishing. Average income is 6,875 marks, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Deutschia's national animal is the eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.
Deutschia is ranked 194,694th in the world and 8,398th in Balder for Most Cultured, scoring 64 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
