The Federal Republic of Armbruster is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Martina Mikulić with a fair hand, and remarkable for its compulsory military service, irreverence towards religion, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic population of 7.198 billion Armbrusterians love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.

The enormous government juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Education, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Stuttgart. The average income tax rate is 80.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Armbrusterian economy, worth 693 trillion €s a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Basket Weaving. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 96,352 €s, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Animal liberationists receive government funding to break into animal research labs, the population's jaw muscles put sharks to shame, Armbrusterians seem to be catching more chills, and weighted heels are added to military boots to ensure diminutive celebrities meet minimum requirements. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Armbruster's national animal is the Griffin and Deer, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Atheism.

Armbruster is ranked 277,021^st in the world and 1,317^th in Europe for Largest Cheese Export Sector, scoring -9.63 on the Mozzarella Productivity Index.
