Inquista, officially the Most Blessed State of Inquista, is a sovereign city-state within the European Union. Located upon the central Mediterranean Basin, Inquista is bordered by Red Croatia to the west and Malborya to the north. Inquista is by far the smallest nation in the European Union, laying claim to only 3082 square kilometers of territory. Saint Dominico, the capital and only city in the nation, covers approximately 99.9% of the country.

Inquista is regarded as one of the European Union's largest commercial and financial hubs, particularly in commercial maritime trade and international banking. The Saint Dominico Port is the largest and busiest port in the European Union, importing and exporting well over two billion tonnes of cargo annually. Inquista's globalised and diversified economy depends heavily on international trade, especially the financial sector, which makes up by far the largest portion of Inquista's total GDP. Inquista also serves as a large manufacturer of items in the European Union, particularly in terms of manufacturing automobiles, auto parts, textiles, fashion and cosmetic items. Inquista currently has the largest GDP and GDP per capita in the European Union, with a GDP of approximately €13.233 trillion and a GDP per capita of €102,400. Due to Inquista's pro-business labour laws and low taxation rates, the country is often regarded as one of the best places to do business. While Inquista has spawned almost a thousand self-made billionaires, the country simultaneously possesses one of the largest rates of income inequality in the European Union.

As of March 2020, Inquista is home to over 129 million national citizens, 2% of which are foreign-born and have immigrated to the country. Due to the small size of the country, Inquista has the highest population density in the European Union, with over 41,900 Inquistans per square kilometer. While Inquista is diverse, ethnic Inquistans predominate: 73.9% percent of the population are white Inquistans and 10.5% are black Inquistans. Sahrawis, who make up 4.7% of the country, are the largest non-ethnic Inquistan population. English and Latin serve as the two official languages of Inquista. Inquista has adopted Inquistan Orthodoxy as its state religion. As of 2020, 98.1% of Inquistans regard themselves as "religious", with 96.6% of which claiming to follow the state religion of Inquistan Orthodoxy.

Inquista is a democratic ecclesiastical theocracy, and as such, the Archbishop of Inquista serves as both head of state and head of the Inquistan Orthodox Church. The Archbishop of Inquista also serves as the leader of the College of Bishops, which is the national legislature of the country.
