The Second Empire of Kiermark is a gargantuan, safe nation, ruled by High King Kieran III Alarik with an even hand, and notable for its museums and concert halls, compulsory military service, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed population of 37.18 billion Kierics are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.
The medium-sized, corrupt, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Social Policy. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Kessengard. The average income tax rate is 87.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The frighteningly efficient Kieric economy, worth a remarkable 8,548 trillion Reichsmarks 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 Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Uranium Mining. Average income is an amazing 229,935 Reichsmarks, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Unemployed accountants keep double-entry ledgers of their benefit claims, citizens seem fixated on 105m x 45m rectangles, the sudden proliferation of nuclear weapons is very queer, and virtual assistants are seen with increasing suspicion every time they get an upgrade. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Kiermark's national animal is the Direwolf, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Kieric Orthodoxy.
Kiermark is ranked 171,736th in the world and 36th in One big Island for Most Stationary, with 95.06648082408 days.
