The Federation of Southern German is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Eberhard von Streletz with an iron fist, and remarkable for its pith helmet sales, frequent executions, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 10.422 billion Southern Germanians are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.
The government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked, corrupt, socially-minded, well-organized morass — juggles the competing demands of Defense, Healthcare, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Berlin. The average income tax rate is 90.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The powerhouse Southern Germanian economy, worth 904 trillion euros a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is mostly made up of the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Furniture Restoration, and Information Technology. Average income is 86,740 euros, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
All industry is owned and run by the government, some people will do literally anything to be in the spotlight, decreased demand for toilets is saving the prison service a lot of money, and the nation has been sent to bed early for unspecified naughtiness. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Southern German's national animal is the black eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.
Southern German is ranked 17,856th in the world and 512th in the Rejected Realms for Most Income Equality, scoring 81.12 on the Marx-Engels Emancipation Scale.
