The Heiliges Kaiserreich of Mittelkhart is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Kaiser Aldrich Farron von Windhoek with an iron fist, and renowned for its compulsory military service, complete lack of prisons, and punitive income tax rates. The cynical, devout population of 7.48 billion Khartians 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, corrupt, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Spirituality, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Windhoek. The average income tax rate is 73.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but stagnant Mittelkhartian economy, worth 98.2 trillion Kroner a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Basket Weaving, Pizza Delivery, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Average income is 13,122 Kroner, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Motorists must pay to enter inner-cities during peak hours, citizens are more concerned about voting for Big Brother contestants than politicians, careless Maxémon Trainers have been the cause of numerous search and rescue operations, and soldiers must key in their passwords every time they want to reload their weapons. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Mittelkhart's national animal is the Windhoek Adler, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Die Schlussflamme.

Mittelkhart is ranked 280,009^th in the world and 10,231^st in Osiris for Largest Automobile Manufacturing Sector, scoring -11.49 on the Henry Ford Productivity Index.
