The United Germanic Federation of The Kingtonn Republic is a massive, genial nation, ruled by Hans Herrmann with an iron fist, and notable for its smutty television, multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, and keen interest in outer space. The compassionate, cynical, devout population of 2.437 billion Kingtonnians are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.
The medium-sized, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Germania. The average income tax rate is 58.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The frighteningly efficient Kingtonn Republician economy, worth 334 trillion Marks a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, and Book Publishing. Black market activity is frequent. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 137,295 Marks, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.0 times as much as the poorest.
At least 1% of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs budget goes to Hans Herrmann's wardrobe, nude art is becoming wildly popular, Kingtonn Republician police have to pay out of their own pockets for bulletproof vests, and a fashion designer has been arrested for inciting hatred after claiming redheads couldn't pull off vermillion. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. The Kingtonn Republic's national animal is the Peregrine Falcon, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Christianity.
The Kingtonn Republic is ranked 276,495th in the world and 5,272nd in The North Pacific for Highest Workforce Participation Rate, with 50.31 Workforce Participation Rate.
