The Republic of Deutsch-Taiwan is a huge, orderly nation, notable for its compulsory military service, frequent executions, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-working, cynical population of 396 million Deutsch-Taiwanians 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 medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government prioritizes Law & Order, although Defense, Administration, and Healthcare are also considered important, while Spirituality and International Aid receive no funds. The average income tax rate is 27.9%.
The strong Deutsch-Taiwanian economy, worth 24.4 trillion bitcoins a year, is led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Woodchip Exports, and Uranium Mining. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 61,673 bitcoins, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.3 times as much as the poorest.
Court verdicts are predictable to within a hundredth of a percentage point, Big Agriculture has the government by the nuts, the constant playing of Merry Birthday on Deutsch-Taiwanian radio has led to calls for the song to be classified as a crime against humanity, and collisions between bicycles and carnival floats are on the rise. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Deutsch-Taiwan's national animal is the kiwi.
Deutsch-Taiwan is ranked 62,925th in the world and 41st in Anteria for Most Patriotic, with 22.41 flags saluted per person per day.
