The Bundesrepublik of BRD is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Konrad Adenauer with an even hand, and renowned for its smutty television, free-roaming dinosaurs, and enslaved workforce. The hard-nosed population of 26.174 billion BRDians 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 tiny government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Law & Order, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Bonn. The average income tax rate is 6.1%, but much higher for the wealthy.
The all-consuming BRDian economy, worth a remarkable 2,480 trillion Marks a year, is highly specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Gambling, and Information Technology. Black market activity is frequent. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 94,775 Marks, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.5 times as much as the poorest.
Punk-rockers and girl-bands are united in their loss of fashion statements, the richest citizens live in sheltered private citadels, the government is continually probing the galaxy in search of alien life, and the government has strong opinions about what goes into your bodily orifices. Crime, especially youth-related, is moderate. BRD's national animal is the Adler, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.
BRD is ranked 13,198th in the world and 519th in Lazarus for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring 8,174.28 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
