The Most Serene Republic of Quetzaland is a massive, socially progressive nation, remarkable for its unlimited-speed roads, irreverence towards religion, and stringent health and safety legislation. The democratic population of 2.592 billion Quetzalandians love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.

The enormous, socially-minded government prioritizes Education, with Healthcare, Public Transport, and Welfare also on the agenda, while Spirituality receives no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Quetzalia. The average income tax rate is 71.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but inefficient Quetzalandian economy, worth 99.8 trillion Nedombs a year, is quite specialized and led by the Beef-Based Agriculture industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Cheese Exports, and Information Technology. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 38,511 Nedombs, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Travel bureaus double as recruiting centers for national intelligence agencies, Quetzalia Preparatory School for the Exceedingly Wealthy's basketball team is having a few off-years, the importance of winning Olympic gold medals is indoctrinated from an early age, and blue sky thinkers are reminded that the firmament is actually more of a grey-ish colour. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Quetzaland's national animal is the Quetzalcoatl, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Quetzaland is ranked 32,885^th in the world and 1,854^th in Lazarus for Most Cultured, scoring 78 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
