The Republic of Queso Frito is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, notable for its disturbing lack of elderly people, compulsory military service, and ban on automobiles. The hard-working, cynical, devout population of 3.959 billion Queso Fritoans 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, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Industry, and Law & Order. The average income tax rate is 18.0%.

The very strong Queso Fritoan economy, worth 313 trillion Gold Coins a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Uranium Mining, and Basket Weaving. Black market activity is notable. Average income is 79,292 Gold Coins, with the richest citizens earning 5.0 times as much as the poorest.

Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Queso Frito's national animal is the Elepanther, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.
