The Holy Empire of Saint Halo is a very large, efficient nation, remarkable for its ubiquitous missile silos, complete absence of social welfare, and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-nosed, hard-working, devout population of 255 million Saint Haloans are free to succeed or fail in life on their own merits; the successful tend to enjoy an opulent (but moralistic) lifestyle, while the failures can be seen crowding out most jails.

The relatively small, moralistic, pro-business government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Spirituality. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 9.6%.

The all-consuming Saint Haloan economy, worth 22.9 trillion Todo's a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Uranium Mining, and Gambling. Average income is 89,913 Todo's, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 664,478 per year while the poor average 3,656, a ratio of 181 to 1.

It is illegal to brush crumbs off your clothing outdoors, military spending is on the increase, a shocking number of estate planners are beneficiaries of their clients' wills, and oil rigs in winter are heated by contained oil slick fires. Crime, especially youth-related, is almost non-existent, thanks to a capable police force. Saint Halo's national animal is the Monster, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Saint Halo is ranked 101,195^th in the world and 30^th in The Bar on the corner of every region for Most Developed, scoring 61.18 on the Human Development Index.
