The Nomadic Peoples of Kriegiersien is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by Tim Krieg with an even hand, and renowned for its frequent executions, digital currency, and infamous sell-swords. The hard-nosed, humorless population of 24.446 billion Kriegiersiens 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 government prioritizes Defense, with Education, Healthcare, and Administration also on the agenda, while Spirituality is ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Schoenwetter. The income tax rate is 100%.

The frighteningly efficient Kriegiersienian economy, worth an astonishing 14,901 trillion shiny things a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is an enormous, deeply entrenched, broadly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Tourism, and Book Publishing. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is a breathtaking 609,560 shiny things, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Scientists are researching the best way to kill off humanity to prevent catastrophic war, thieves find battery shops juicier targets than banks, Thomas the Spank Engine is the most popular and controversial children's show in the nation, and escaped birthday balloons are torpedoed out of the sky. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Kriegiersien's national animal is the scorpion, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Kriegiersien is ranked 290,531st in the world and 11,075th in Balder for Nicest Citizens, with 0.19 average smiles per day.
