The Republic of The Quickster is a mammoth, safe nation, ruled by The Chief with an even hand, and renowned for its compulsory military service, frequent executions, and devotion to social welfare. The democratic population of 6.682 billion Quicksterians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Welfare, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Bikini Bottom. The average income tax rate is 45.2%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The Quicksterian economy, worth 326 trillion Dollars a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Furniture Restoration, Book Publishing, and Information Technology. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 48,864 Dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.2 times as much as the poorest.

Young girls aren't having a ball but they are enjoying themselves, many friends and relatives of The Chief have been given ambassador jobs in tropical island nations, armed war-criminals gain asylum if deemed 'fabulous' enough, and foreign leaders' Twitcher accounts are monitored for potential threats to national security. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. The Quickster's national animal is the Oyster and its national religion is Justice.

The Quickster is ranked 264,840^th in the world and 2^nd in Barbados for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring -6.84 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
