The Republic of Josemaria Escriva is a huge, safe nation, notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape and daily referendums. The democratic, devout population of 706 million Josemaria Escrivans love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized government is dominated by the Department of Spirituality, with Administration, Law & Order, and Welfare also on the agenda. The average income tax rate is 26.0%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but inefficient Josemaria Escrivan economy, worth 27.7 trillion kronor a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Soda Sales industry, with major contributions from Pizza Delivery, Retail, and Woodchip Exports. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 39,167 kronor, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The government has declared "all your rigs are belong to us", safe drinking water is considered a luxury, treason is relative, and Josemaria Escriva has designated Josemaria Escriva City as its capital city. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Josemaria Escriva's national animal is the porpoise, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to heavy metals seepage into national waterways.

Josemaria Escriva is ranked 132,679^th in the world and 1^st in Opus dei II for Most Corrupt Governments, with 5.32 kickbacks per hour.
