The Holy Empire of The Templar Papal New State is a colossal, cultured nation, ruled by Augustus XVII with an iron fist, and renowned for its free-roaming dinosaurs, zero percent divorce rate, and stringent health and safety legislation. The cynical, devout population of 8.16 billion Papal Stateans 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 large, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Roma. The average income tax rate is 95.5%.

The frighteningly efficient Templar Papal New Statean economy, worth a remarkable 1,424 trillion Papal Lire a year, is quite specialized and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Information Technology, and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 174,603 Papal Lire, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Many are asking why the latest naval vessel is named after Saint Bartholomeus the Many Handed, astronauts take one small step for The Templar Papal New State and one giant step backward from confrontation, ambulances aren't allowed to overtake hearses, and internet searches for the inventor of the three-wheeled steam-powered Templar Papal New Statean weed picker are way up. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. The Templar Papal New State's national animal is the Bear, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Christianity.

The Templar Papal New State is ranked 204,831st in the world and 1,067th in Europe for Nicest Citizens, with 9.76 average smiles per day.
