The Holy Empire of Qudrath is a gargantuan, orderly nation, ruled by Holy Emperor with an iron fist, and remarkable for its enslaved workforce, ubiquitous missile silos, and suspicion of poets. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless, devout population of 38.774 billion Qudrathis 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 tiny, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Makkah. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 1.5%.

The frighteningly efficient Qudrathi economy, worth an astonishing 14,613 trillion Imperial Dinaars a year, is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Uranium Mining, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Black market activity is extensive. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an amazing 376,876 Imperial Dinaars, with the richest citizens earning 8.6 times as much as the poorest.

Forty-year-old men are asked for their ID before watching the latest pony cartoon movies, animal liberationists receive government funding to break into animal research labs, the government invades its allies more than its enemies, and exiles see that the line where the sky meets the sea is just clouds and rain. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Qudrath's national animal is the Imperial Falcon, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Islaam.

Qudrath is ranked 57,081^st in the world and 1^st in Asia for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 1,767.05 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
