The Holy Empire of Paladani is a massive, safe nation, ruled by Supreme Bishop with an iron fist, and renowned for its museums and concert halls, ubiquitous missile silos, and national health service. The compassionate, cynical, cheerful, devout population of 4.222 billion Paladanians 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 enormous, moralistic, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Holyland. The average income tax rate is 93.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Paladanian economy, worth 563 trillion Paladanian Prayers a year, is highly specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Information Technology, and Arms Manufacturing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 133,488 Paladanian Prayers, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Most people attending churches are maintenance workers, businesses are forced to bring all work back within the nation's borders, school uniforms are compulsory, and afternoon delight in care homes is restricted to a serving of spotted dick at 3pm. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Paladani's national animal is the Trinity Lamb, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Christianity.

Paladani is ranked 10,676th in the world and 457th in The North Pacific for Safest, scoring 119.46 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
