The Republic of Quebecshire IX is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, remarkable for its burgeoning swan population. The quiet, industrious population of 5.949 billion Quebecshire IXians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Welfare. The average income tax rate is 23.8%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The large but inefficient Quebecshire IXian economy, worth 203 trillion pesos a year, is led by the Beef-Based Agriculture industry, with major contributions from Uranium Mining, Trout Farming, and Automobile Manufacturing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 34,153 pesos, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.3 times as much as the poorest.

Crime is well under control, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Quebecshire IX's national animal is the swan, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Quebecshire IX is ranked 180,999^th in the world and 7,753^rd in Osiris for Lowest Crime Rates, with 58.33 law-abiding acts per hour.
