The Old Guard of The Austro Germanic Union is a massive, cultured nation, ruled by Kaiser Freidrich IV with a fair hand, and renowned for its smutty television, pith helmet sales, and state-planned economy. The compassionate, democratic population of 1.594 billion Austro-Germans hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized, liberal, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Industry, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Berlin. The average income tax rate is 81.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Austro-German economy, worth 262 trillion Reichsmarks a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is broadly diversified, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Retail. Average income is an impressive 164,681 Reichsmarks, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

In life full of care there is no time to stop and stare, military spending recently hit a new high, citizens live in superstitious fear of the mysterious glowing clouds that float over The Austro Germanic Union, and the 'kind of scrawny' 500 meter hurdle is a popular event. Crime is totally unknown. The Austro Germanic Union's national animal is the Prussian Eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

The Austro Germanic Union is ranked 4,715^th in the world and 290^th in The North Pacific for Most Inclusive, scoring 226.99 on the Mandela-Wollstonecraft Non-Discrimination Index.
