The Empowered Individuals of QXF is a massive, cultured nation, ruled by Crusher of Conservatives with a fair hand, and remarkable for its daily referendums, sprawling nuclear power plants, and irreverence towards religion. The compassionate, democratic population of 3.641 billion Qians 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 large, socially-minded, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Leningrad 2. The average income tax rate is 93.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient QXFian economy, worth 544 trillion marks a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is dominated by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Tourism, and Trout Farming. Average income is an impressive 149,444 marks, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Shoppers have literally had their hands full since plastic bags were banned, a primitive society is being eroded as its youth flock to the modern world, sex offenders find themselves cut off from the ability to repeat their crimes, and napalm is the tool of choice for disabling eco-unfriendly forestry operations. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. QXF's national animal is the dragon, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

QXF is ranked 37,861^st in the world and 416^th in The Communist Bloc for Most Subsidized Industry, scoring 4,885.42 on the Gilded Widget Scale.
