The Republic of Neoquestria is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Chancellor Silent Moon with an even hand, and remarkable for its museums and concert halls, public floggings, and restrictive gun laws. The compassionate, humorless population of 10.866 billion Neoquestrians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Administration, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Future City. The average income tax rate is 99.3%.

The frighteningly efficient Neoquestrian economy, worth a remarkable 2,130 trillion euros a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Information Technology, and Basket Weaving. Average income is an impressive 196,106 euros, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Oxygen is commonly known as 'breathinium', the constant playing of Merry Birthday on Neoquestrian radio has led to calls for the song to be classified as a crime against humanity, adults pretending to be teenage girls claim to have wholesome motives, and party-lovers often change religions just for the weekend. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Neoquestria's national animal is the cat, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Agnosticism.

Neoquestria is ranked 2,405th in the world and 65th in The East Pacific for Most Extensive Public Healthcare, scoring 12,713.51 on the Theresa-Nightingale Rating.
