The Most Blessed State of Inquista is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by the Archbishop of Inquista with a fair hand, and remarkable for its deadly medical pandemics, keen interest in outer space, and multi-spousal wedding ceremonies. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic, humorless, devout population of 31.126 billion Inquistans live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.

The minute, corrupt, liberal, pro-business, outspoken government, or what there is of one, juggles the competing demands of Industry, Spirituality, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Saint Dominico. Income tax is unheard of.

The frighteningly efficient Inquistan economy, worth an astonishing 16,211 trillion Inquistoes a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Gambling industry, with major contributions from Soda Sales, Retail, and Automobile Manufacturing. Average income is a breathtaking 520,839 Inquistoes, with the richest citizens earning 7.0 times as much as the poorest.

It is said that an Inquistan woman's work is never done, 'Anarchy in Inquista!' is a popular TV program in foreign countries, new "Commiserations! It's An Accident!" greetings cards for expectant mothers are selling surprisingly quickly, and snitches get riches. Crime, especially youth-related, is so common that it is unusual to encounter someone following the law, probably because of the absence of a police force. Inquista's national animal is the Black Swan, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Inquistan Orthodoxy.

Inquista is ranked 294,278^th in the world and 55^th in European Union for Lowest Crime Rates, with 1.83 law-abiding acts per hour.
