The Unified Sovereignty of Quinzavix is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by Viceroy with an even hand, and renowned for its rum-swilling pirates, deadly medical pandemics, and keen interest in outer space. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful, devout population of 15.074 billion Quinzies have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Anchorport. The average income tax rate is 80.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Quinzavixian economy, worth a remarkable 2,769 trillion doubloons a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is fairly diversified, is led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Retail. Average income is an impressive 183,716 doubloons, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.2 times as much as the poorest.

The Museum of Blackacrean War Crimes is located on "Blackacre Did Nothing Wrong Avenue", APCs on school runs disgorge kids via assault ramps, endangered bison are herded across the border to prevent them from trampling on native prairie grass, and the subway is dead quiet in early afternoons. Crime is totally unknown. Quinzavix's national animal is the hammerhead shark, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans, and its national religion is Reborn Rastafari.

Quinzavix is ranked 237,503rd in the world and 594th in 10000 Islands for Most Extreme, scoring 11.49 on the Paul-Nader Subjective Decentrality Index.
