The Holy Empire of StMichael is a very large, environmentally stunning nation, notable for its frequent executions, public floggings, and compulsory military service. The hard-working, cynical, devout population of 231 million StMichaelians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The medium-sized, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Administration, and Education. The average income tax rate is 39.0%.

The thriving StMichaelian economy, worth 22.2 trillion Denaris a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, and Woodchip Exports. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 96,162 Denaris, with the richest citizens earning 5.2 times as much as the poorest.

Footballers are doing aerobics in the sauna to build their hot weather endurance, extraordinary tribunals try accused financial criminals, StMichaelians firmly believe that their heroes never farted or popped their pimples, and preschoolers outnumber veteran politicians in government. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. StMichael's national animal is the Owl, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

StMichael is ranked 45,113^th in the world and 8^th in Cumberperry for Largest Cheese Export Sector, scoring 4,773.41 on the Mozzarella Productivity Index.
