The Evergreen Flyer of Quivern Botan is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, renowned for its ritual sacrifices, ubiquitous missile silos, and prohibition of alcohol. The hard-nosed, devout population of 4.415 billion Quivern Botanians are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.

The relatively small, moralistic government prioritizes Defense, with Law & Order, Industry, and Education also on the agenda, while International Aid isn't funded at all. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 16.5%.

The strong Quivern Botanian economy, worth 337 trillion dollars a year, is led by the Trout Farming industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Woodchip Exports, and Tourism. Black market activity is frequent. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 76,420 dollars, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 256,912 per year while the poor average 16,855, a ratio of 15.2 to 1.

Students and teachers are regularly stopped and searched for symbols of religious affiliation before class, murder victims' families receive windfall payouts when the murderers are executed, you're only as old as you feel, and scrapyards are filled with Leader's face. Crime is moderate, possibly because it is difficult to make it through a day without breaking one of the country's many regulations. Quivern Botan's national animal is the porpoise, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.

Quivern Botan is ranked 262,634th in the world and 7th in Ordis for Largest Publishing Industry, scoring -5.4 on the Bella Potter Productivity e-Index.
