The Principality of Pqs is a titanic, safe nation, renowned for its zero percent divorce rate, keen interest in outer space, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, devout population of 13.463 billion Pqsians are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.

The large government prioritizes Defense, although Law & Order, Education, and Administration are also considered important. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 66.7%.

The large but inefficient Pqsian economy, worth 624 trillion dollars a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Trout Farming, and Basket Weaving. Average income is 46,386 dollars, with the richest citizens earning 5.8 times as much as the poorest.

Talking during class is a gateway to lifelong drug addiction, foreign musicians that Leader dislikes are turned away at the border, soldiers stream their classified military operations live for millions of fans, and strict term limits have been applied to all elected offices. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Pqs's national animal is the parrot, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Pqs is ranked 118,470^th in the world and 457^th in Carcassonne for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring 1,580.15 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
