The Allied States of Qorah is a massive, efficient nation, remarkable for its barren, inhospitable landscape. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 4.266 billion Qorahians enjoy frequent elections, which are uniformly corrupted by big-spending corporations buying politicians who best suit their interests.

The tiny, moralistic, pro-business government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Healthcare. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 8.2%.

The thriving Qorahian economy, worth 291 trillion betales a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Gambling industry, with major contributions from Retail, Automobile Manufacturing, and Woodchip Exports. Average income is 68,384 betales, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 227,609 per year while the poor average 15,310, a ratio of 14.9 to 1.

The alarmingly racist TV show 'Bigtopians Say the Darndest Things' is a hit, military spending recently hit a new high, and several citizens have complained about scientists abducting their pets for experimentation. Crime is moderate, possibly because it is difficult to make it through a day without breaking one of the country's many regulations. Qorah's national animal is the deer, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

Qorah is ranked 11,933^rd in the world and 2^nd in Belize for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring 8,415.12 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
