“Desperta, Ferro!”

Overview • Policies • People • Government • Economy • Rank • Trend • Cards

The Principality of Qatarunya is a very large, efficient nation, renowned for its public floggings, infamous sell-swords, and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 310 million Catalins are effectively ruled by a group of massive corporations, who run for political office and provide their well-off citizens with world-class goods and services. Their poorer citizens, however, are mostly starving to death while being urged to go out and get real jobs. The populace has reasonably extensive civil rights, although these are mostly aimed at allowing them to buy whatever they like.

The relatively small, pro-business government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Administration, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Upper Diagonal. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 9.7%.

The all-consuming Qatarunyan economy, worth 30.0 trillion Croats a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Retail, and Uranium Mining. Average income is 96,746 Croats, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 375,570 per year while the poor average 17,060, a ratio of 22.0 to 1.

Qatarunya's children are widely acknowledged as the most foul-mouthed in the region, a survey of the nation's rivers and children has shown that pesticide levels are at an all-time regional high, thieves claim they're simply working for the tax agency, and the government only announces the deaths of its members when it's convenient. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Qatarunya's national animal is the Llopi, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Qatarunya is ranked 252,868^th in the world and 1,100^th in Europeia for Largest Arms Manufacturing Sector, scoring -3.35 on the Charon Conveyancy Index.
