The Commonwealth of Berlin and Hanover is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Friedrich Kraus with an even hand, and notable for its multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, national health service, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 7.723 billion Berliners are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Education, Industry, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Berlin. The average income tax rate is 96.4%.

The frighteningly efficient Berliner economy, worth a remarkable 1,344 trillion Deutsche Marks a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Furniture Restoration. Average income is an impressive 174,044 Deutsche Marks, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The government is washing its hands of alleged corruption, people stand their fridges back-to-front to benefit from the free heating, the volume of paperwork used to complete a single environmental assessment defeats the purpose, and it's been a banner year for local vexillology. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Berlin and Hanover's national animal is the Bear, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Yahlism.

Berlin and Hanover is ranked 75,236^th in the world and 458^th in Europe for Most Patriotic, with 22.02 flags saluted per person per day.
