The Federal Kingdom of Satreburg 2 is a huge, safe nation, ruled by Ludwig Kohlmann with an iron fist, and remarkable for its museums and concert halls, compulsory military service, and ban on automobiles. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 964 million Hanasinans 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 large, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Karion. The average income tax rate is 72.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Hanasinan economy, worth 110 trillion Hanasinish Kroner a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Information Technology, and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 114,948 Hanasinish Kroner, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.7 times as much as the poorest.

Citizens have to dodge their neighbors' drones while getting the morning paper, foreign governments are threatened if they so much as mention the word "election", a rolling news ticker tape of disclaimers runs across the bottom of the screen on all TV shows, and women who display their ankles are shunned by society. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Satreburg 2's national animal is the Krone Eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Satreburg 2 is ranked 190,994^th in the world and 3,184^th in The North Pacific for Largest Automobile Manufacturing Sector, scoring 271.18 on the Henry Ford Productivity Index.
