The Startling Empire of Reimstagrad is a gargantuan, efficient nation, notable for its museums and concert halls, punitive income tax rates, and compulsory gun ownership. The hard-nosed, humorless population of 18.793 billion Reimstagradians are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.

The medium-sized, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Industry, and Education. The average income tax rate is 63.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Reimstagradian economy, worth a remarkable 2,306 trillion Euros a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Uranium Mining, and Automobile Manufacturing. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 122,708 Euros, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.3 times as much as the poorest.

Aggravated apostrophe abusers are admonished and assaulted, the government tries not to listen to the people unless it absolutely has to, schoolkids say that the air doesn't taste like wee-wee any more, and the new foreign policy is "why bother invading neighbours when they can be bought wholesale?". Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Reimstagrad's national animal is the Agapornis, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Reimstagrad is ranked 34,536^th in the world and 2,223^rd in Balder for Most Advanced Public Education, scoring 5,814.15 on the Edu-tellignce® Test Score.
