The United States of Quincy is a massive, cultured nation, ruled by President Arnold Landon with an even hand, and remarkable for its keen interest in outer space, infamous sell-swords, and complete lack of prisons. The hard-nosed, hard-working, devout population of 3.694 billion Quincois enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The minute, corrupt, liberal government, or what there is of one, juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Industry, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Hancock FC. The average income tax rate is 4.8%.

The powerhouse Quincois economy, worth 346 trillion Quincois Credits a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Gambling industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Uranium Mining, and Retail. Black market activity is frequent. Average income is 93,832 Quincois Credits, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.3 times as much as the poorest.

Airplane passengers who purchase "basic economy" tickets are often assigned seats in the lavatory, an internet search for the word "bland" produces pictures of President Arnold Landon, people often feel unbalanced by their daily commute, and military spending recently hit a new high. Crime, especially youth-related, is all-pervasive, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Quincy's national animal is the Bear, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Quincy is ranked 247,742^nd in the world and 1,195^th in Europe for Highest Foreign Aid Spending, scoring -6.32 on the Clooney Contribution Index.
