The Empire of Scansin Reich is a gargantuan, safe nation, notable for its compulsory military service. The hard-nosed population of 20.016 billion Scansin Reichians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Industry. The average income tax rate is 15.2%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The Scansin Reichian economy, worth a remarkable 1,234 trillion Marks a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Automobile Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Trout Farming, and Arms Manufacturing. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 61,683 Marks, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.9 times as much as the poorest.

Genetic researchers have been expelled, voting is voluntary, meat is a luxury afforded only to the wealthy, and the automotive industry soaks up huge government handouts. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Scansin Reich's national animal is the Wolf.

Scansin Reich is ranked 120,269^th in the world and 155^th in KAISERREICH for Most Subsidized Industry, scoring 965.18 on the Gilded Widget Scale.
