Overview • People • Government • Economy • Trend • Analysis

The Greater German Reich of Leather-clad Germany is a colossal, economically powerful nation, ruled by 𝖙𝖍𝖊 𝕶𝖆𝖎𝖘𝖊𝖗 𝖚𝖓𝖉 𝕱ü𝖍𝖗𝖊𝖗 with an iron fist, and remarkable for its complete absence of social welfare. Its hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 7.495 billion are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent, corrupt, moralistic government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Defence, Law & Order, and Healthcare. It meets every day to discuss matters of state in the capital city of 𝕭𝖊𝖗𝖑𝖎𝖓 - Welthauptstadt Germania. The average income tax rate is 98%. A powerhouse of a private sector is dominated by the Arms Manufacturing industry.

Military spending is on the increase, immigrant herding has become a national pastime, the government is cracking down on subversive groups, and bicyclists are banned from major roads. Crime -- especially youth-related -- is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force. Leather-clad Germany's national animal is the 𝕽𝖊𝖎𝖈𝖍𝖘𝖆𝖉𝖑𝖊𝖗, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, its national religion is 𝕯𝖊𝖚𝖙𝖘𝖈𝖍𝖊𝖘 𝕮𝖍𝖗𝖎𝖘𝖙𝖊𝖓𝖙𝖚𝖒, and its currency is the ℛℳ.

Leather-clad Germany is ranked 5th in the Greater German Reich and 2,200th in the world for Largest Mining Sector, scoring 11 on the Blue Sky Asbestos Index.
