The Stratokorporate Kingdom of Austrvikingariki is a massive, cultured nation, ruled by Vladerikison III with an iron fist, and notable for its frequent executions, pith helmet sales, and zero percent divorce rate. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless, devout population of 1.328 billion Austrvangríkians 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 relatively small, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Industry, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Kørningsríkí. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 32.7%.

The frighteningly efficient Austrvangríkian economy, worth 288 trillion Zlatnikis a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Uranium Mining, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Black market activity is rampant. Average income is an amazing 216,887 Zlatnikis, but there is an enormous disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 1,164,508 per year while the poor average 21,077, a ratio of 55.2 to 1.

Both criminals and civilians are DOA, punitive tariffs protect local industry, the numbers on the latest spending report are reaching stellar levels, and a firework a day does not in fact keep the doctor away. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Austrvikingariki's national animal is the blackmetal wolf, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Khristastrú.

Austrvikingariki is ranked 197,876^th in the world and 179^th in Fifth Empire for Highest Poor Incomes, with 21,077.29 Standard Monetary Units.
