The Queen's State of Defier is a gargantuan, efficient nation, remarkable for its complete lack of public education and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 28.792 billion Defierians 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 relatively small, moralistic, well-organized government prioritizes Industry, although Defense is also considered important, while Spirituality and Social Policy are ignored. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 11.5%.

The thriving Defierian economy, worth 665 trillion betales a year, is highly specialized and led by the Retail industry, with major contributions from Automobile Manufacturing, Soda Sales, and Uranium Mining. Average income is 23,125 betales, with the richest citizens earning 6.5 times as much as the poorest.

Elections have been outlawed, punitive tariffs protect local industry, and military spending is on the increase. Crime is a serious problem, probably because of the absence of a police force. Defier's national animal is the deer, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Defier is ranked 85,401^st in the world and 109^th in Metropolis for Greatest Rich-Poor Divides, with 6.46 Rich To Poor Income Ratio.
