The Meritocratical Stratocracy of Motsumoto is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Empress Tanya Degurechaff with an iron fist, and renowned for its sprawling nuclear power plants, unlimited-speed roads, and frequent executions. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless, devout population of 11.339 billion Germans are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The relatively small, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, although Law & Order, Industry, and Administration are also considered important, while Social Policy and International Aid are ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Berlin. The average income tax rate is 17.0%.

The frighteningly efficient Motsumotoan economy, worth a remarkable 4,669 trillion Deutsche Marks a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Retail, Book Publishing, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 411,815 Deutsche Marks, with the richest citizens earning 5.1 times as much as the poorest.

The military invades any neighboring nation with the gall to criticize its policies, spoiler warnings are now given out before political speeches, AI citizens are criticized for being robotic, and cars speed down national highways while drivers sleep at the wheel. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Motsumoto's national animal is the Dragon, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Cult of Iron.

Motsumoto is ranked 807th in the world and 13th in Osiris for Largest Publishing Industry, scoring 42,482.76 on the Bella Potter Productivity e-Index.
