The Snow-White Soarer of Quivern is a colossal, cultured nation, renowned for its compulsory military service, zero percent divorce rate, and public floggings. The hard-nosed, hard-working population of 4.295 billion Quivernians 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 prioritizes Defense, with Industry, Law & Order, and Administration also on the agenda, while Spirituality and International Aid aren't funded at all. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 44.1%.

The all-consuming Quivernian economy, worth 365 trillion dollars a year, is quite specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Basket Weaving, and Information Technology. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 85,168 dollars, with the richest citizens earning 5.6 times as much as the poorest.

The internet has been placed under government control, diplomats miss flights while wandering Quivern City Airport's endless art maze, only the rich can afford the latest medical innovations, and endangered species are effective hostages against the Quivernian military. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Quivern's national animal is the cobra, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Quivern is ranked 109,474^th in the world and 2^nd in Ameriupol for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring 1,504.5 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
