The Sancta Societas of Quessia is a massive, orderly nation, ruled by King Franciscus Legault Ist with an iron fist, and notable for its flagrant waste-dumping, aversion to nipples, and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless, devout population of 4.69 billion Quessians 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 medium-sized, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Spirituality, Industry, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Nomen Meum Jeff. The average income tax rate is 27.8%.

The frighteningly efficient Quessian economy, worth 402 trillion Petras a year, is quite specialized and led by the Gambling industry, with significant contributions from Woodchip Exports, Uranium Mining, and Basket Weaving. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 85,717 Petras, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.9 times as much as the poorest.

Years of counter-terrorism planning are foiled by small details, poor Quessians are always begging for a lift, politicians ponder for at least a minute when asked if they would like sugar in their tea, and people forget to eat because they are too busy singing King Franciscus Legault Ist's praises. Crime is moderate, possibly because it is difficult to make it through a day without breaking one of the country's many regulations. Quessia's national animal is the Alces, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Nos Saxa Manducare.

Quessia is ranked 66,835^th in the world and 3,794^th in Lazarus for Most Conservative, scoring 73.92 on the Bush-Santorum Dawning Terror Index.
