The Sovereign Corporation of PQ Forge is a gargantuan, orderly nation, ruled by Seven with an iron fist, and notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, suspicion of poets, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 23.791 billion corporate employees are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The tiny, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government is effectively ruled by the Department of Defense, with Law & Order also on the agenda, while Welfare and Environment aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Chapterhouse Prime. Income tax is unheard of.

The frighteningly efficient Corporate Employee economy, worth an astonishing 11,917 trillion GPS 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 large, well-organized, broadly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Uranium Mining, and Woodchip Exports. 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 a breathtaking 500,933 GPS, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.5 times as much as the poorest.

Friendly fire incidents usually result in severe burns, school children are forced to sing the national anthem every morning, the military is plagued with unethical researchers, and Big Brother is still watching even when your big brother is dead. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, despite the fact that it is difficult to make it through a day without breaking one of the country's many laws. PQ Forge's national animal is the slave labourer, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Prolefeed.

PQ Forge is ranked 207,016^th in the world and 442^nd in NationStates for Most Primitive, scoring -858.61 on the Scary Big Number Scale.
