The Nomadic Peoples of Kriegiersien is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Tim Krieg with an even hand, and notable for its soft-spoken computers, irreverence towards religion, and restrictive gun laws. The hard-nosed, humorless population of 24.527 billion Kriegiersiens are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The medium-sized, corrupt government prioritizes Defense, although Education, Healthcare, and Administration are also considered important, while Spirituality isn't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Schoenwetter. The income tax rate is 100%.

The frighteningly efficient Kriegiersienian economy, worth an astonishing 14,926 trillion shiny things a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is an enormous, deeply entrenched, broadly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Tourism, and Book Publishing. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is a breathtaking 608,561 shiny things, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Scientists are researching the best way to kill off humanity to prevent catastrophic war, thieves find battery shops juicier targets than banks, Thomas the Spank Engine is the most popular and controversial children's show in the nation, and escaped birthday balloons are torpedoed out of the sky. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Kriegiersien's national animal is the scorpion, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Kriegiersien is ranked 288,033rd in the world and 11,122nd in Balder for Largest Automobile Manufacturing Sector, scoring -18.55 on the Henry Ford Productivity Index.
