The Maniacal Monotreme of Greater Qwerty is a mammoth, orderly nation, ruled by Ryan the I Like Trains kid with an iron fist, and renowned for its sprawling nuclear power plants, enslaved workforce, and compulsory gun ownership. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless, devout population of 8.486 billion Qwerts 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, moralistic, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, with Law & Order and Industry also on the agenda, while International Aid and Environment are ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Typington. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 56.7%.

The frighteningly efficient Greater Qwertyian economy, worth a remarkable 1,729 trillion computer keys a year, is broadly diversified and mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Arms Manufacturing, Retail, Information Technology, and Uranium Mining. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an amazing 203,791 computer keys, but there is an enormous disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 1,117,513 per year while the poor average 18,925, a ratio of 59.0 to 1.

The invisible hand of the market wipes babies' bottoms, the act of reporting blasphemy is known as 'Orthodoxxing', takeaway food bought on the weekend now comes with fifty percent more sweat and tears, and the nation's soldiers sleep four to a bed in order to use space economically. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Greater Qwerty's national animal is the stonefish, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Estonism.

Greater Qwerty is ranked 191,813th in the world and 4th in argent for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring 70.85 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
