The District of Nordherausforderung is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Liard with a fair hand, and renowned for its barren, inhospitable landscape and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 24.28 billion Nordherausforderungians are known throughout the region for their efficiency and work ethic, as well as their general suspicion of leisure.

The relatively small, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Law & Order, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of District City. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 9.9%.

The powerhouse Nordherausforderungian economy, worth a remarkable 1,278 trillion aurums a year, is led by the Beef-Based Agriculture industry, with major contributions from Furniture Restoration, Woodchip Exports, and Soda Sales. Average income is 52,637 aurums, with the richest citizens earning 6.8 times as much as the poorest.

The automotive industry soaks up huge government handouts, Nordherausforderung has designated District City as its capital city, Liard has just been declared ruler of Nordherausforderung in an international press conference, and the government's official stance on religion is that it is so very silly. Crime is moderate. Nordherausforderung's national animal is the bovina, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

Nordherausforderung is ranked 267,821^st in the world and 8^th in Imperial Prussia for Most Corrupt Governments, with 0.7 kickbacks per hour.
