The Imperial Kingdom of The Germans Of Berlin is a massive, orderly nation, ruled by Kaiser Sigmon I with an iron fist, and notable for its zero percent divorce rate, ubiquitous missile silos, and sprawling nuclear power plants. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 2.478 billion Germinians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The large, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Reichpackt Berlin. The average income tax rate is 74.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Germans Of Berlinian economy, worth 361 trillion Markwaffes a year, is fairly diversified and dominated by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Uranium Mining, and Trout Farming. Black market activity is extensive. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 145,928 Markwaffes, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.0 times as much as the poorest.

Atheists on vacation find Protestant Christianity's scriptures make useful doorstops, NPCs in MMORPGs regularly interrupt cutscenes with OOC reminders that they aren't real people, the dish 'poisson avec poison' is only available on the black market, and descriptions of properties as "a stone's throw from the city centre" require a trebuchet to be true. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. The Germans Of Berlin's national animal is the House sized Black Eagle, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution, and its national religion is Protestant Christianity.

The Germans Of Berlin is ranked 130,042nd in the world and 110th in Lone Wolves United for Largest Automobile Manufacturing Sector, scoring 1,900.88 on the Henry Ford Productivity Index.
