The Monarchy of Inquanok is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by King Randolph Carter with an even hand, and renowned for its barren, inhospitable landscape, deadly medical pandemics, and digital currency. The hard-nosed, hard-working population of 3.288 billion Inquanokians are either ruled by a sleek, efficient government or a conglomerate of multinational corporations; it's difficult to tell which.

The relatively small, corrupt, pro-business government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Education, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Celephaïs. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 46.5%.

The frighteningly efficient Inquanokian economy, worth 693 trillion golds a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Retail, Arms Manufacturing, and Book Publishing. Black market activity is extensive. Average income is an amazing 210,962 golds, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 630,061 per year while the poor average 55,277, a ratio of 11.4 to 1.

Citizens have to dodge their neighbors' drones while getting the morning paper, the latest Harry Potter book is a bestseller, exploding toys that leak battery acid are back in the shops after the government declared child safety 'over-rated', and the Treasury has been accused of flushing money down the toilet. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Inquanok's national animal is the Night-gaunt, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Inquanok is ranked 16,760^th in the world and 306^th in Europe for Most Developed, scoring 87.74 on the Human Development Index.
