The Islamic Sultanate of Quartararo is a huge, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Raditya Pratama with an iron fist, and renowned for its compulsory military service, keen interest in outer space, and devotion to social welfare. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 949 million Quetres 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 large, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Rahmatia. The average income tax rate is 71.7%.

The frighteningly efficient Quetrean economy, worth 112 trillion Rupiahs a year, is dominated by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Uranium Mining, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Information Technology. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 118,395 Rupiahs, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.4 times as much as the poorest.

Wildlife near farms is slowly becoming extinct, commemoration of the Great The Frontier Sea War costs almost as much as the war itself, former bars are desperately trying to re-brand themselves as cafés, and babies are a small but significant export. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Quartararo's national animal is the Capybara, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Quartararo is ranked 148,726th in the world and 519th in The Frontier Sea for Largest Publishing Industry, scoring 1,878.68 on the Bella Potter Productivity e-Index.
