The Reich of Eisensturm is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Kaiser Adalbert XVI with an iron fist, and notable for its otherworldly petting zoo, frequent executions, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 1.675 billion Eisensturmians 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, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Industry, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Eisenberg. The average income tax rate is 74.0%.

The frighteningly efficient Eisensturmian economy, worth 283 trillion Eisenmarks a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Tourism. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 169,030 Eisenmarks, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.8 times as much as the poorest.

The law says that all Eisensturmians are created equal — no matter how they were created, subsidisation of Big Pharma has stopped many corporate executives from having to sell their second homes, the national census includes an opt-in to join the government-run dating service, and school kids who pretend to drive imaginary cars get a social worker and a police observer assigned to them. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Eisensturm's national animal is the Sturmwolf, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Eisensturm is ranked 18,502^nd in the world and 4^th in Estalcia for Highest Average Incomes, with 169,030.09 Standard Monetary Units.
