The Federal Kingdom of Nierlandia is a colossal, orderly nation, ruled by President Reyhan with an iron fist, and renowned for its prohibition of alcohol, flagrant waste-dumping, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless population of 5.389 billion Nierlandians 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 medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic government is primarily concerned with Defense, with Education, Law & Order, and Administration also on the agenda, while International Aid and Spirituality aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Illesa. The average income tax rate is 93.1%.

The frighteningly efficient Nierlandian economy, worth a remarkable 1,410 trillion Nierlandian Dollars a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Retail, and Uranium Mining. Average income is an amazing 261,713 Nierlandian Dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.5 times as much as the poorest.

The government is denying reports that criminals injected with experimental drugs have turned into monstrous supervillains, military minds worry that 'the blue screen of death' on brand new operating systems may be a literal description, an increasing number of knights in shining armor suffer from PTSD, and truncheon-mounted cameras record the beating of criminals in dynamic HD detail. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Nierlandia's national animal is the Phoenix, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution.

Nierlandia is ranked 3,807^th in the world and 10^th in Commonwealth of Liberty for Largest Governments, scoring 46.93 on the Bureaucratic Comprehensiveness Rating Scale Index.
