OverviewDispatchesPoliciesPeopleGovernmentEconomyRankTrendCards

The Republic of Qep is a massive, orderly nation, ruled by Joe Mack with an iron fist, and renowned for its digital currency, keen interest in outer space, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, cynical population of 2.225 billion Qeppians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The enormous government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Mackopolis. The average income tax rate is 77.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming Qeppian economy, worth 199 trillion Pennies a year, is quite specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Cheese Exports, and Arms Manufacturing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 89,852 Pennies, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.0 times as much as the poorest.

Most households' childcare costs are higher than their mortgage payments, almost all products in Qep are hand-crafted due to strict employment laws, pareidolic SETI scientists swear there's a message from aliens hidden within pi, and the dessert 'Death by Chocolate' isn't the most lethal dish on the menu. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Qep's national animal is the Chicken, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Mackism.

Qep is ranked 283,631st in the world and 5,423rd in The North Pacific for Highest Workforce Participation Rate, with 48.79 Workforce Participation Rate.
