The Rogue Nation of Qec is a colossal, cultured nation, remarkable for its absence of drug laws. The hard-working, democratic, devout population of 2.714 billion Qecians hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The relatively small, liberal, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Spirituality, Welfare, and Education. The average income tax rate is 9.5%.

The Qecian economy, worth 119 trillion pounds a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Gambling industry, with major contributions from Beef-Based Agriculture, Soda Sales, and Tourism. Average income is 44,130 pounds, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.4 times as much as the poorest.

A large-scale revitalization of the education system is underway. Crime is relatively low. Qec's national animal is the elephant.

Qec is ranked 53,818^th in the world and 8^th in Pacifism for Most Cultured, scoring 71 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
