The Republic of 2nd Questas is a very large, environmentally stunning nation, notable for its parental licensing program, public floggings, and suspicion of poets. The hard-nosed, humorless, devout population of 455 million 2nd Questasians 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 is primarily concerned with Defense, with Administration, Industry, and Healthcare also on the agenda, while Spirituality and International Aid are ignored. The average income tax rate is 19.6%.

The strong 2nd Questasian economy, worth 25.4 trillion uwus a year, is quite specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Retail, Book Publishing, and Uranium Mining. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 55,823 uwus, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.8 times as much as the poorest.

2nd Questas City's iconic yellow taxis are nowhere to be seen, breast milk is being redistributed from each according to their ability to each according to their need, descriptions of properties as "a stone's throw from the city centre" require a trebuchet to be true, and the judicial system legislates morality. Crime is moderate, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. 2nd Questas's national animal is the uwu, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

2nd Questas is ranked 298,211^th in the world and 26^th in the Quppet Storage for Most Compassionate Citizens, scoring 29.64 on the Kitten Softness Rating.
