The Holy Theocratic Monarchy of QwertyL is a massive, orderly nation, ruled by High King Lucius with an iron fist, and remarkable for its keen interest in outer space, ubiquitous missile silos, and otherworldly petting zoo. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless, devout population of 3.052 billion QwertyLians 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 prioritizes Defense, with Industry, Education, and Law & Order also on the agenda, while Social Policy and International Aid are ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of QWERTY. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 4.1%.
The frighteningly efficient QwertyLian economy, worth 674 trillion Ldollars a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Retail, and Uranium Mining. Black market activity is frequent. Average income is an amazing 221,131 Ldollars, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 690,218 per year while the poor average 54,396, a ratio of 12.7 to 1.
Subsidisation of Big Pharma has stopped many corporate executives from having to sell their second homes, movie references are legally admissible in court, the government has an entire department dedicated to staring at microscopes and writing down letters, and broken suspension systems are giving auto repair shops plenty of business. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, despite the fact that it is difficult to make it through a day without breaking one of the country's many laws. QwertyL's national animal is the Golden Elephant, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Catholicism.
QwertyL is ranked 3,706th in the world and 5th in Catholic for Largest Timber Woodchipping Industry, scoring 10,612.93 on the Tasmanian Pulp Environmental Export Index.
