The Colony of Riemstagrad Kaarten Depot 12 is a colossal, efficient nation, remarkable for its ubiquitous missile silos, compulsory gun ownership, and devotion to social welfare. The hard-nosed population of 8.614 billion Riemstagrad Kaarten Depot 12ians are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.

The large, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Administration. The average income tax rate is 74.5%.

The frighteningly efficient Riemstagrad Kaarten Depot 12ian economy, worth a remarkable 1,101 trillion Banks 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, fairly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Uranium Mining, Book Publishing, and Furniture Restoration. 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 an impressive 127,846 Banks, with the richest citizens earning 5.2 times as much as the poorest.

Many suspect that the 'Whinny The Plop' children's magazine contains covert criticism of Leader, people reciting Shakespeare have become a common sight, excessive wheelchair ramps on government buildings have been compared to theme park attractions, and funeral directors are frequently looking at their watches during funerals. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Riemstagrad Kaarten Depot 12's national animal is the Joker, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Riemstagrad Kaarten Depot 12 is ranked 235,958th in the world and 7,355th in Balder for Most Stationary, with 22.6634229954 days.
