The Army Unit of Sturmmann is a titanic, safe nation, notable for its state-planned economy, devotion to social welfare, and stringent health and safety legislation. The devout population of 11.583 billion Sturmmannians are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.

The large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Spirituality, Welfare, and Defense. The average income tax rate is 63.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The large but sluggish Sturmmannian economy, worth 353 trillion War Bonds a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is led by the Woodchip Exports industry, with major contributions from Uranium Mining, Book Publishing, and Pizza Delivery. Average income is 30,532 War Bonds, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Sniffer dogs are trained to follow clouds of fruity-smelling vapor, military spending is on the increase, the country's famous rainforests are being bulldozed by the mining industry, and meat-eating is frowned upon. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Sturmmann's national animal is the Leopard, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Sturmmann is ranked 269,821^st in the world and 1^st in Interregional Axis for Largest Manufacturing Sector, scoring 2,774.11 on the Gooback-Jerbs Productivity Index.
