The Queen's Royal Province of Santiago de Guayaquil is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by the Governor with an iron fist, and notable for its irreverence towards religion and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 23.106 billion Santiago de Guayaquilians are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The relatively small government prioritizes Industry, with Law & Order, Defense, and Environment also on the agenda, while Spirituality and Welfare receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Capital Heights. The average income tax rate is 13.1%.

The powerhouse Santiago de Guayaquilian economy, worth a remarkable 1,031 trillion betales a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Automobile Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Trout Farming, and Retail. Average income is 44,628 betales, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.9 times as much as the poorest.

New safety regulations require all cars manufactured in Santiago de Guayaquil to be bombproof, roads are often attended by round-the-clock construction crews, town nameplates frequently raise giggles from passing tourists, and pregnant women make easy targets. Crime is a problem. Santiago de Guayaquil's national animal is the deer, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Santiago de Guayaquil is ranked 224,700^th in the world and 638^th in Ancient Lands for Nicest Citizens, with 6.19 average smiles per day.
