The State of Qardu is a gargantuan, safe nation, renowned for its irreverence towards religion, punitive income tax rates, and devotion to social welfare. The cynical population of 15.959 billion Qarduans 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 enormous, moralistic, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Welfare, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Westminster. The average income tax rate is 69.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The large but stagnant Qarduan economy, worth 119 trillion betales a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is mostly made up of the Trout Farming industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Tourism, and Woodchip Exports. Average income is 7,503 betales, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Elections have been outlawed, it is illegal to make racist remarks in public, motorists' locations are constantly tracked by intelligence and law enforcement agencies, and Qardu has designated Westminster as its capital city. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Qardu's national animal is the deer, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Qardu is ranked 36,722nd in the world and 4th in Republic of the Congo for Most Stationary, with 1,238.31144359128 days.
