The Federation of Albertstadt is a gargantuan, genial nation, ruled by Reichskanzler Haliwell with an even hand, and renowned for its museums and concert halls, restrictive gun laws, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate population of 12.918 billion Albertstadtians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Dresden. The average income tax rate is 93.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming Albertstadtian economy, worth a remarkable 1,565 trillion Denariis a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Cheese Exports. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 121,224 Denariis, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Polygraphs are relegated to the dungeon exhibit in castle museums, construction workers evacuate work sites after finding sharp rocks on the ground, former bakers no longer have to get their baps out, and government bureaucrats review designs for birdhouses to ensure they do not block the views of neighbors. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Albertstadt's national animal is the Bear, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is is not a government delcaration.

Albertstadt is ranked 6,567^th in the world and 16^th in Gay for Lowest Crime Rates, with 110.1 law-abiding acts per hour.
