The Republic of 4th Questas is a large, efficient nation, notable for its compulsory military service, compulsory vegetarianism, and suspicion of poets. The hard-nosed, hard-working, devout population of 160 million 4th Questasians are either ruled by a sleek, efficient government or a conglomerate of multinational corporations; it's difficult to tell which.

The relatively small government is primarily concerned with Spirituality, with Healthcare, Defense, and Education also on the agenda, while Social Policy isn't funded at all. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 9.2%.

The very strong 4th Questasian economy, worth 9.99 trillion cards a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Gambling industry, with major contributions from Cheese Exports, Door-to-door Insurance Sales, and Soda Sales. Average income is 62,455 cards, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 203,692 per year while the poor average 14,409, a ratio of 14.1 to 1.

The School of Hard Knocks is receiving record application numbers., the government is full of esquivalience, newspapers cannot report anything about politicians without their explicit consent, and veterans are directed into environmental cleanup operations. Crime, especially youth-related, is moderate, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. 4th Questas's national animal is the card, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

4th Questas is ranked 211,059^th in the world and 18^th in the Quppet Storage for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 283.8 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
