The Holy Empire of New Christeros is a huge, cultured nation, notable for its free-roaming dinosaurs, avowedly heterosexual populace, and triple-decker prams. The hard-nosed, hard-working, devout population of 655 million New Christeroes are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.
The medium-sized, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Spirituality. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Saint Joseph. The average income tax rate is 27.5%.
The all-consuming New Christerosian economy, worth 63.0 trillion Gold Coins a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Basket Weaving, and Retail. Average income is 96,127 Gold Coins, with the richest citizens earning 5.2 times as much as the poorest.
Employers are never quite sure if graduates' qualifications have any merit or meaning, the military is on a massive recruiting drive in advance of an invasion of Brasilistan, the thin blue line is composed of picketing police officers demanding better pensions, and commuter vessels have trouble staying afloat due to increased passengers. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. New Christeros's national animal is the White Lion, which is also the nation's favorite main course.
New Christeros is ranked 57,786th in the world and 4th in Vatican for Most Patriotic, with 30.19 flags saluted per person per day.
