Nation/The Federation of New Germany
The Federation of The Federation of New Germany is a small, efficient nation, renowned for its barren, inhospitable landscape, compulsory military service, and suspicion of poets. The hard-nosed, hard-working, devout population of 20 million Federation of New Germanyians 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, Healthcare, and Defense. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 12.2%.
The very strong Federation of New Germanyian economy, worth 1.32 trillion German Dollars a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Woodchip Exports industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Retail, and Pizza Delivery. Average income is 66,070 German Dollars, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 190,112 per year while the poor average 18,243, a ratio of 10.4 to 1.
Invasive species are hunted by the gendarmerie, the government extracts trade concessions from poor nations in exchange for humanitarian aid, the government baselessly accuses foreign dignitaries of being assassins, and the government pours millions of German Dollars into rehabilitation programs annually. Crime, especially youth-related, is almost non-existent. The Federation of New Germany's national animal is the Wolf, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.
The Federation of New Germany is ranked 57,397th in the world and 9th in Haifuri for Largest Manufacturing Sector, scoring 8,375.01 on the Gooback-Jerbs Productivity Index.
we used to be part of a larger country, Germany, then it was split up to a lot of countries....we had some land, but like a phoenix, we rose from the ashes we strive to be a strong country, that is feared, but respected....we do not aim for war, but will fight if we must...."Countries are allies or enemies....nothing else"
