The Heiliges Deutscher Nation of Romisches Reich is a titanic, orderly nation, remarkable for its pith helmet sales, frequent executions, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, cynical, devout population of 20.831 billion Holy Romans 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 large, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Spirituality, and Defense. The average income tax rate is 55.3%.

The Holy Roman economy, worth 869 trillion Romisches marks a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is fairly diversified, is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Tourism, and Automobile Manufacturing. Average income is 41,726 Romisches marks, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.5 times as much as the poorest.

The nanny industry has had a boom after maternity leave was recently banned, priests are being drafted by the church load, the government struggles to keep up with the endless list of petrol disasters, and the fire protection service is wholly government-funded. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Romisches Reich's national animal is the Reichsadler, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Romisches Reich is ranked 18,146^th in the world and 1^st in Sacrum Imperium Romanum for Largest Populations, with 20.8 billion capita.
