The Borderlands of Santh is a titanic, safe nation, remarkable for its fear of technology. The quiet, industrious population of 12.681 billion Santhians 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 medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Welfare. The average income tax rate is 29.6%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The large but inefficient Santhian economy, worth 393 trillion Credits a year, is led by the Uranium Mining industry, with major contributions from Pizza Delivery, Woodchip Exports, and Automobile Manufacturing. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 31,012 Credits, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.0 times as much as the poorest.

The nation is ravaged by daily union strikes and meetings are often scheduled for "about four-ish" following complete conversion to sundials. Crime is well under control, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Santh's national animal is the Vulture, which can occasionally be seen dodging aircraft in the nation's cities.

Santh is ranked 83,344^th in the world and 1^st in SimNations for Largest Black Market, with 3.89 trillion Standard Monetary Units.
