The Queen's State of Charles Quist is a gargantuan, efficient nation, renowned for its burgeoning deer population. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 30.917 billion Charles Quistians 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 tiny, pro-business, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Welfare, and Healthcare. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 7.0%.

The powerhouse Charles Quistian economy, worth a remarkable 1,644 trillion betales a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Pizza Delivery, Woodchip Exports, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. Average income is 53,183 betales, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 162,465 per year while the poor average 13,494, a ratio of 12.0 to 1.

None has been named as Charles Quist's national religion, the nation's favourite colour is gold (Charles Quist has found 1 easter egg), the government extracts trade concessions from poor nations in exchange for humanitarian aid, and most governmental positions are filled by zealous nationalists. Crime is a problem, probably because of the absence of a police force. Charles Quist's national animal is the deer, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities, and its national religion is none.

Charles Quist is ranked 149,940^th in the world and 262^nd in State for Largest Trout Fishing Sector, scoring 1,148.04 on the Nemo Depletion Efficiency Index.
