The People's State of Steyrein is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Supreme Commissar Monika Roth with an iron fist, and renowned for its state-planned economy, punitive income tax rates, and restrictive gun laws. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 2.88 billion Steyreiners 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 large, corrupt, moralistic, socially-minded, well-organized government is primarily concerned with Defense, with Law & Order, Education, and Administration also on the agenda, while International Aid and Spirituality aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Neubayern. The average income tax rate is 95.5%.

The frighteningly efficient Steyreinian economy, worth 580 trillion Volksmarks a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is fairly diversified, is dominated by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Beef-Based Agriculture, Trout Farming, and Information Technology. Average income is an amazing 201,709 Volksmarks, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Pro-democracy protesters are shot on sight by state police, visiting dignitaries make excuses to leave functions early and head to the nearest pub, military equipment stores have a tendency to go up in flames, and it is illegal to carry an umbrella when the official weather forecast predicts a sunny day. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Steyrein's national animal is the Steyreinian caiman, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is State Atheism.

Steyrein is ranked 303,417^th in the world and 223^rd in Fifth Empire for Fattest Citizens, with 3.85 Obesity Rate.
