The Union of Socialist Republic of Germannia is a massive, cultured nation, ruled by Smedley Butler with an even hand, and remarkable for its otherworldly petting zoo, keen interest in outer space, and daily referendums. The hard-nosed, hard-working population of 2.459 billion Germannia have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Gremannia. The average income tax rate is 18.5%.

The frighteningly efficient Germannibus economy, worth 423 trillion dollars a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is broadly diversified, is led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Retail, and Book Publishing. Average income is an impressive 172,405 dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.5 times as much as the poorest.

The nation's navy has been named the scourge of the seven thousand seas, light entertainment shows are light on actual entertainment, citizens applying for their first jobs face fierce competition from the homeless, and jury selection begins with explaining what a jury is. Crime is totally unknown. Germannia's national animal is the Gray Wolf, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Germannia is ranked 106,633rd in the world and 52nd in The Leftist Assembly for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring 1,907.68 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
