The Oppressed Peoples of Qude EC is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by The Sentent Gold Plated Car with an iron fist, and remarkable for its rampant corporate plagiarism, public floggings, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 1.107 billion Qude ECians are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

Black market activity is frequent. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 112,073 dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.2 times as much as the poorest.
