The Republic of Quantix is a huge, genial nation, notable for its daily referendums, national health service, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic population of 585 million Quantixians are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The medium-sized, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Virelion. The average income tax rate is 38.9%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The very strong Quantixian economy, worth 55.6 trillion us dollars a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Furniture Restoration, and Beef-Based Agriculture. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 94,961 us dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.2 times as much as the poorest.

Student exchange programs are in trouble as everyone wants to leave but no-one wants to come, edutainment video games are taking Quantix's students to the next level, every school is receiving a brand new eraser, and the economy is green and the air is black. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Quantix's national animal is the dove, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Quantix is ranked 73,710^th in the world and 1,154^th in The North Pacific for Most Developed, scoring 69.28 on the Human Development Index.
