Overview • People • Government • Economy • Trend • Analysis

The Sovereign Corporation of PQ Forge is a colossal, economically powerful nation, ruled by General Von Streicher with an iron fist, and remarkable for its barren, inhospitable landscape. Its hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 8.028 billion are ruled with an iron fist by the corrupt, dictatorship government, which oppresses anyone who isn't on the board of a Fortune 500 company. Large corporations tend to be above the law, and use their financial clout to gain ever-increasing government benefits at the expense of the poor and unemployed.

There is no government in the normal sense of the word; however, a small group of community-minded, corrupt, moralistic, pro-business individuals juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defence, and Commerce. It meets every day to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Chapterhouse Prime. Income tax is unheard of. A powerhouse of a private sector is led by the Uranium Mining industry, followed by Arms Manufacturing and Information Technology.

The Ministry of Truthiness now manages the entire media industry, the only places to see slave labourers now are at local zoos, the workforce is almost entirely made up of slave labour, and political activists are routinely executed. Crime -- especially youth-related -- is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force. PQ Forge's national animal is the slave labourer, which is also the nation's favorite main course, its national religion is Capitalism, and its currency is the GP.

PQ Forge is ranked 101st in The NationStates Community and 126,567th in the world for Largest Public Sector, scoring -6 on the Bureaucratic Comprehensiveness Rating Scale Index.
