The Federal Ocean Republic of Qawe is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, ruled by Kjéiruliem Nebiula with a fair hand, and renowned for its complete lack of prisons, irreverence towards religion, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 10.983 billion Qaweans love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.

The enormous, socially-minded, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Qandende Gejopla. The average income tax rate is 96.6%.

The frighteningly efficient Qawerian economy, worth a remarkable 1,687 trillion monis a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing and Tourism. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 153,625 monis, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Code enforcement officers circle wealthy Qaweans like vultures, multiple births are a cause of celebration for tax collectors, weighted heels are added to military boots to ensure diminutive celebrities meet minimum requirements, and contemporary art museums showcase the latest in centuries-old art. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Qawe's national animal is the water wheat giraffe, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Qawe is ranked 4,723rd in the world and 110th in the South Pacific for Lowest Crime Rates, with 117.83 law-abiding acts per hour.
