The Queendom of Saint Von Artemis is a large, environmentally stunning nation, notable for its enslaved workforce, complete lack of prisons, and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless population of 87 million Artemisians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Industry. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 35.8%.

The thriving Saint Von Artemisian economy, worth 6.20 trillion Praisis a year, is broadly diversified and dominated by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Automobile Manufacturing, and Gambling. Average income is 71,218 Praisis, but there is an enormous disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 416,480 per year while the poor average 5,716, a ratio of 72.9 to 1.

The government baselessly accuses foreign dignitaries of being assassins, funeral mourners ridesharing with the deceased are encouraged to sit on the coffin to save room, citizens know not to ask what their country can do for them but what they can do as chained slaves for their country, and a milk bath costs more than bathing in money. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Saint Von Artemis's national animal is the Chartreux, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Saint Von Artemis is ranked 73,739^th in the world and 267^th in Europe for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring 3,139.76 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
