The Nomadic Peoples of Kriegiersien is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Tim Krieg with an even hand, and remarkable for its ubiquitous missile silos, soft-spoken computers, and national health service. The hard-nosed, humorless population of 23.671 billion Kriegiersiens are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The medium-sized, corrupt government prioritizes Defense, with Education, Healthcare, and Administration also on the agenda, while Spirituality isn't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Schoenwetter. The income tax rate is 100%.

The frighteningly efficient Kriegiersienian economy, worth an astonishing 14,458 trillion shiny things a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is an enormous, deeply entrenched, broadly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Tourism, and Book Publishing. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is a breathtaking 610,823 shiny things, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

When shaking hands with foreign leaders Tim Krieg wears an armoured gauntlet, buses are widely regarded as the safest way to travel, scientists are researching the best way to kill off humanity to prevent catastrophic war, and thieves find battery shops juicier targets than banks. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Kriegiersien's national animal is the scorpion, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Kriegiersien is ranked 1,064th in the world and 31st in Balder for Lowest Crime Rates, with 165.77 law-abiding acts per hour.
