The Black Holy Dominion of A Share of the ThyssenKrupp AG is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by Alfred Krupp with a fair hand, and notable for its daily referendums, infamous sell-swords, and pith helmet sales. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 4.644 billion Germans hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized, corrupt, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Essen. The average income tax rate is 93.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Share of the ThyssenKrupp AGian economy, worth a remarkable 2,022 trillion Gold Euros a year, is broadly diversified and mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Arms Manufacturing. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an amazing 435,449 Gold Euros, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.9 times as much as the poorest.

Interest rates mysteriously drop whenever the CBSTA Governor goes house hunting, armed police are cracking down on untaxed collectable-card-trading in local junior schools, charities reserve the right to not help those who go against religious teachings, and citizens applying for their first jobs face fierce competition from the homeless. Crime, especially youth-related, is pervasive, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. A Share of the ThyssenKrupp AG's national animal is the Vampire Eagle, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution, and its national religion is Belial - Lord of Solitary.

A Share of the ThyssenKrupp AG is ranked 281,681^st in the world and 28^th in The Financial District of New York for Most Authoritarian, with 168.99 milliStalins.
