The United Confederation of The Saintsland Republic is a colossal, cultured nation, ruled by PM Maria Valencia with an even hand, and remarkable for its rum-swilling pirates, national health service, and absence of drug laws. The hard-nosed, hard-working, humorless, devout population of 9.667 billion Saintians 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 relatively small, corrupt government is primarily concerned with Defense, although Industry, Law & Order, and Administration are also considered important, while Social Policy and International Aid aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Ciudad de Santos. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 45.8%.
The frighteningly efficient Saintian economy, worth a remarkable 3,264 trillion Santos a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Retail, and Tourism. Black market activity is rampant. Average income is an amazing 337,686 Santos, with the richest citizens earning 6.6 times as much as the poorest.
Relations with Dàguó have warmed from frosty to chilly, visiting dignitaries make excuses to leave functions early and head to the nearest pub, a recent political speech drew the ire of nerds everywhere after the speaker claimed that Darth Vader was Harry Potter's father, and people often get liposuction to reduce their air fares. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. The Saintsland Republic's national animal is the Snake, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Christianity.
The Saintsland Republic is ranked 24,772nd in the world and 619th in the Rejected Realms for Lowest Crime Rates, with 86.12 law-abiding acts per hour.
