The Queen's State of EQ is a gargantuan, efficient nation, notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, complete lack of public education, and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 19.465 billion EQians live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.
The tiny, liberal, pro-business, outspoken government is solely concerned with Industry. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 6.7%.
The powerhouse EQian economy, worth 768 trillion betales a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is quite specialized and led by the Uranium Mining industry, with significant contributions from Cheese Exports, Automobile Manufacturing, and Trout Farming. Average income is 39,501 betales, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 268,558 per year while the poor average 2,122, a ratio of 126 to 1.
Voting is voluntary, the country's famous rainforests are being bulldozed by the mining industry, the automotive industry soaks up huge government handouts, and none has been named as EQ's national religion. Crime is a major problem, probably because of the absence of a police force. EQ's national animal is the deer, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is none.
EQ is ranked 288,438th in the world and 279th in Omega Prime for Lowest Crime Rates, with 34.52 law-abiding acts per hour.
