The Imperial Reich of ARIAF is a colossal, orderly nation, ruled by The Grand Chancellor Otto Von Bismark with an iron fist, and remarkable for its strictly enforced bedtime, avowedly heterosexual populace, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 3.909 billion Germans are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic, socially-minded, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, although Law & Order, Education, and Industry are also considered important. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Berlin. The average income tax rate is 96.5%.

The frighteningly efficient ARIAFian economy, worth a remarkable 1,098 trillion REICHMARKS 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, Information Technology, Uranium Mining, and Woodchip Exports. 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 amazing 280,922 REICHMARKS, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Former slaves find themselves being herded onto ships once more, the dearly departed are remembered with a good meal, the government subsidizes those who produce the worst results, and diaper-wrapped shawarma is a fan-favorite. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. ARIAF's national animal is the EAGLE, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution, and its national religion is Imperial Cult.

ARIAF is ranked 9,411^th in the world and 9^th in The Global Elite for Largest Black Market, with 586 trillion Standard Monetary Units.
