The Sunlit Archipelago of Rebellious Saints is a gargantuan, genial nation, ruled by Bryony Bludd with an even hand, and notable for its smutty television, lack of airports, and ban on automobiles. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful, devout population of 13.43 billion Rebellious saints enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The enormous, liberal, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Environment, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Halfmoon Wood. The average income tax rate is 98.1%.

The frighteningly efficient Saint economy, worth a remarkable 2,316 trillion Indulgences a year, is highly specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing and Tourism. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 172,482 Indulgences, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

People say that cubists are rubbish because they can't draw faces, visitors often mistake the toiletplex at music festivals for the main stage, the government believes there is no problem that raising taxes won't fix, and the national guard is mobilized whenever a mother gets separated from her child at the mall. Crime is totally unknown. Rebellious Saints's national animal is the weasel, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Christianity.

Rebellious Saints is ranked 3,952^nd in the world and 211^th in Balder for Lowest Crime Rates, with 122.45 law-abiding acts per hour.
