The Rogue Nation of Saint Lucian Frostland is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Peter van Wyck with an even hand, and remarkable for its irreverence towards religion. The quiet, industrious population of 1.178 billion Frostlanders 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 juggles the competing demands of Environment, Defense, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Columbus. The average income tax rate is 29.3%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but inefficient Frostlandic economy, worth 44.2 trillion frostens a year, is quite specialized and led by the Trout Farming industry, with major contributions from Uranium Mining, Basket Weaving, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 37,510 frostens, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.6 times as much as the poorest.

Hospitals fear government fines more than terrorist ransoms, fruit pickers with degrees in arctic fox psychology are a common sight, teenagers are making eye contact with each other for the first time in years, and Peter van Wyck has been known to threaten dissenting citizens with a machine gun at press conferences. Crime, especially youth-related, is well under control, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Saint Lucian Frostland's national animal is the arctic fox, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Saint Lucian Frostland is ranked 251,563^rd in the world and 153^rd in Fifth Empire for Most Extreme, scoring 10.26 on the Paul-Nader Subjective Decentrality Index.
