The Nomadic Peoples of Pilgrim Madonna is a colossal, cultured nation, renowned for its zero percent divorce rate, devotion to social welfare, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic, devout population of 3.841 billion Pilgrims are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Spirituality, Welfare, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Bethlehem. The average income tax rate is 73.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The thriving Pilgrim economy, worth 263 trillion Frankincenses a year, is quite specialized and led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Trout Farming, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Basket Weaving. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 68,556 Frankincenses, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Big game hunters travel to Pilgrim Madonna to try their hand at shark-shooting, boys are forced to pair off for the school disco slow dance as the girls are all staying at home, ice-filled coffins are ominously positioned in the corner of every hospital ward, and museums stand half-empty as all foreign exhibits are returned to their countries of origin. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Pilgrim Madonna's national animal is the Lamb, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Christianity.

Pilgrim Madonna is ranked 105,041^st in the world and 6^th in Catholic Art Gallery for Highest Average Incomes, with 68,556.64 Standard Monetary Units.
