The Holy Empire of Qudrath is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Holy Emperor with an iron fist, and renowned for its pith helmet sales, compulsory military service, and prohibition of alcohol. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless population of 33.581 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 relatively small, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Makkah. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 47.2%.

The frighteningly efficient Qudrathi economy, worth an astonishing 14,686 trillion Imperial Dinaars a year, is mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Uranium Mining, and Beef-Based Agriculture. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an amazing 437,338 Imperial Dinaars, with the richest citizens earning 6.9 times as much as the poorest.

A fashion designer has been arrested for inciting hatred after claiming redheads couldn't pull off vermillion, the government is pouring money into 'Operation Enduring Democracy', scientists are not permitted to ask questions, and the new one Imperial Dinaar coin also makes a handy throwing-star. 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 179,388^th in the world and 16^th in Asia for Largest Automobile Manufacturing Sector, scoring 26.25 on the Henry Ford Productivity Index.
