The Grand Queensnation of Natael is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by Lilith Lana with an iron fist, and notable for its museums and concert halls, ubiquitous missile silos, and complete lack of prisons. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 2.874 billion Nataelis are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The medium-sized, corrupt, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, with Industry, Law & Order, and Education also on the agenda, while Spirituality receives no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Tanyel Hava. The average income tax rate is 48.5%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Nataeli economy, worth 289 trillion Ponyas a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a slick, highly efficient, broadly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Book Publishing, Retail, and Uranium Mining. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an impressive 100,682 Ponyas, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.1 times as much as the poorest.

Jabbing a baby's bottle at officials gets parents waved straight through immigration, doctors prescribe medicines but they rarely dispense hope or compassion, nature magazines featuring stick insects on their covers are sometimes mistaken for fashion magazines, and religious bigotry is not allowed but bigotry against theism is encouraged. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Natael's national animal is the Nataeli White Deer, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Anti Christ.

Natael is ranked 17,432nd in the world and 2nd in Republic of Communist Specialists for Largest Publishing Industry, scoring 9,482.87 on the Bella Potter Productivity e-Index.
