The Queen's State of JQ is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by the Governor with a fair hand, and notable for its absence of drug laws, complete absence of social welfare, and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 17.906 billion JQians live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.
The minute, liberal, pro-business, outspoken government, or what there is of one, is solely concerned with Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Capital Heights. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 5.4%.
The very strong JQian economy, worth 513 trillion betales a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is quite specialized and led by the Cheese Exports industry, with significant contributions from Retail, Trout Farming, and Soda Sales. Average income is 28,685 betales, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 195,024 per year while the poor average 1,541, a ratio of 126 to 1.
The alarmingly racist TV show 'Bigtopians Say the Darndest Things' is a hit, JQ has designated Capital Heights as its capital city, the government's official stance on religion is that it is so very silly, and The Governor has just been declared ruler of JQ in an international press conference. Crime is a major problem, probably because of the absence of a police force. JQ's national animal is the deer, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.
JQ is ranked 262,183rd in the world and 336th in Omega Prime for Safest, scoring 11.82 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
