“Justice, Piety, Loyalty”

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

The Republic of Qwertyuil is a huge, safe nation, remarkable for its irreverence towards religion. The quiet, industrious population of 780 million Qwertyuilians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 17.5%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The Qwertyuilian economy, worth 34.2 trillion florins a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Trout Farming industry, with significant contributions from Automobile Manufacturing, Pizza Delivery, and Furniture Restoration. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 43,894 florins, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.7 times as much as the poorest.

Political clichés like "band-aid solutions" and "adrenaline shots to the economy" are headed for the dumpster, politicians preface their speeches with a declaration that any resemblance to speeches given by individuals living or dead is purely coincidental, pregnancy tests are under fire from the government for being marketed only to women, and military pilots spend more time scraping feathers off their engines than flying their aircraft. Crime, especially youth-related, is well under control, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Qwertyuil's national animal is the kangaroo, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Qwertyuil is ranked 116,462^nd in the world and 16^th in Armies of the World for Most Primitive, scoring -31.62 on the Scary Big Number Scale.
