The Republic of QSX24 is a very large, efficient nation, renowned for its barren, inhospitable landscape, compulsory military service, and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-nosed, hard-working population of 457 million QSX24ians are either ruled by a sleek, efficient government or a conglomerate of multinational corporations; it's difficult to tell which.

The tiny, pro-business government prioritizes Defense, with Law & Order and Healthcare also on the agenda, while Spirituality and International Aid aren't funded at all. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 7.5%.

The thriving QSX24ian economy, worth 32.3 trillion baht a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Door-to-door Insurance Sales, and Cheese Exports. Average income is 70,653 baht, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 222,960 per year while the poor average 17,106, a ratio of 13.0 to 1.

One of the most popular models in QSX24 has a scarred face and one working eye, the price of takeaway food quadruples after 6pm, scientists recently cloned the long-extinct feather-bellied cow, and preschoolers practice disarming active shooters before naptime. Crime is moderate. QSX24's national animal is the cow, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

QSX24 is ranked 292,505^th in the world and 6^th in the Subspace Hideout for Largest Black Market, with 34.0 billion Standard Monetary Units.
