The Federation of Qude is a massive, genial nation, ruled by Willson XIV with an even hand, and renowned for its smutty television, state-planned economy, and free-roaming dinosaurs. The compassionate population of 1.153 billion Qudeans are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Qude DC. The average income tax rate is 52.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Qudean economy, worth 109 trillion dollars 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, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Pizza Delivery. Average income is 95,275 dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Lifeguards are more concerned with watching for sharks than struggling swimmers, glamping Qudeans won't sleep in a tent that doesn't include a Jacuzzi, hordes of unemployed lumberjacks have resorted to cutting down utility poles to satisfy their cravings, and sermons are regularly interrupted by businessmen taking phone calls. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Qude's national animal is the panda, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Agnosticism.

Qude is ranked 71,294^th in the world and 9^th in The waters for Largest Trout Fishing Sector, scoring 3,885.14 on the Nemo Depletion Efficiency Index.
