The State of Quantrill is a colossal, socially progressive nation, ruled by Governor Bill Anderson with a fair hand, and notable for its burgeoning horse population. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 4.466 billion Quantrillians hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The tiny government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Spirituality, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Lawrenceville. The average income tax rate is 8.9%.

The Quantrillian economy, worth 235 trillion dollars a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Cheese Exports, Furniture Restoration, and Woodchip Exports. Average income is 52,778 dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.8 times as much as the poorest.

Binoculars sales are at an all-time high, cricket farmers use magnifying glasses to fit every member of their herd with tiny tracking tags, everyone wants to be on the guest list for diplomatic parties, and garden stores are not allowed to sell water butts. Crime is moderate, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Quantrill's national animal is the horse, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Christianity.

Quantrill is ranked 153,547^th in the world and 21^st in Dixie for Highest Food Quality, scoring 16.54 on the Meeshlin-Starr Index.
