The Republic of -San Cristobal- is a titanic, safe nation, ruled by Prime Minister Antonieta Alvarez with a fair hand, and renowned for its daily referendums, irreverence towards religion, and absence of drug laws. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 16.901 billion Cristobalians hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The tiny, liberal government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Education, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of the San Cristobal Capital District. The average income tax rate is 4.6%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Cristobalian economy, worth a remarkable 3,555 trillion Cristobalian dollars a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Information Technology, and Cheese Exports. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 210,376 Cristobalian dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Abortions are routinely performed in the nation's hospitals, the nation's navy has been named the scourge of the seven thousand seas, intellectual snobbery has the cognoscenti sneering at anyone who doesn't have an opinion on the semiological drift of Umberto Eco's works, and the government is continually probing the galaxy in search of alien life. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. -San Cristobal-'s national animal is the Cristobalian parakeet, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

-San Cristobal- is ranked 9,853^rd in the world and 8^th in Osakaland for Highest Average Incomes, with 210,376.64 Standard Monetary Units.
