The Federation of Saint Nations is a huge, genial nation, ruled by The Federal Council with a fair hand, and remarkable for its irreverence towards religion, absence of drug laws, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic population of 910 million Saintians hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized, liberal, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Industry, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Saintsland. The average income tax rate is 70.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Saint Nationsian economy, worth 131 trillion Saint dollars a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Trout Farming. Average income is an impressive 144,235 Saint dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.0 times as much as the poorest.

Clowns are being rounded up and admitted to mental institutions, coffee-addicted citizens look forward to baristas getting their name wrong at local coffee shops, companies have begun running campaigns to stop people from remembering their brand name, and the election for The Federal Council's office's janitor is heating up. Crime is totally unknown. Saint Nations's national animal is the Great Frigatebird, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Saint Nations is ranked 12,062^nd in the world and 209^th in 10000 Islands for Healthiest Citizens, with 13.57 bananas ingested per day.
