The Federation of Quuahnckaizse is a small, safe nation, notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, compulsory military service, and keen interest in outer space. The democratic population of 40 million Quuahnckaizsians 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 Defense, Education, and Law & Order. The average income tax rate is 30.2%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but inefficient Quuahnckaizsean economy, worth 1.38 trillion Quuahnckaizsian Dollars a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Pizza Delivery industry, with significant contributions from Retail, Book Publishing, and Woodchip Exports. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 34,426 Quuahnckaizsian Dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The end of autumn is celebrated with a bonfire of designer bags, new government leaflets tell coeliac children to eat more crisps, apples shaped like baguettes have become a strange new food fad, and the government is making attempts at curtailing the flood of spam emails with little progress. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Quuahnckaizse's national animal is the Turtle, which can occasionally be seen avoiding garbage in the nation's murky oceans.

Quuahnckaizse is ranked 204,974^th in the world and 13^th in The Dragonian Cascanians for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring -3.74 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
