The Empire of Duechsvoff is a very large, safe nation, renowned for its ubiquitous missile silos, compulsory military service, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 187 million Duechsvoffians are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

The enormous, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Welfare, and Law & Order. The average income tax rate is 70.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The imploded Duechsvoffian economy, worth 977 billion rubahifs a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is led by the Trout Farming industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing and Automobile Manufacturing. Average income is 5,225 rubahifs, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Brasilistan is being evacuated after its designation as 'Test Zone 1 - Nuclear', the nation is weighing the price of victory following a nuclear strike, being sent to collections is more dangerous than ever, and politicians are often seen with soldiers pointing guns at their heads. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Duechsvoff's national animal is the cobra, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Duechsvoff is ranked 174,593^rd in the world and 4^th in Ingronov for Largest Automobile Manufacturing Sector, scoring 150.51 on the Henry Ford Productivity Index.
