The Republic of -San Cristobal- is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Prime Minister Peter Lopez with a fair hand, and remarkable for its keen interest in outer space, smutty television, and daily referendums. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 11.869 billion Cristobalians hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The relatively small, liberal government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Education, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of the San Cristobal Capital District. The average income tax rate is 40.0%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Cristobalian economy, worth a remarkable 2,402 trillion Cristobalian dollars a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Information Technology, and Cheese Exports. Average income is an amazing 202,459 Cristobalian dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The nation's atlases tend to go out of date every few weeks, the only movement outdoors is of ramen-delivery drones, the government regularly publishes lengthy reports on its own excessive recordkeeping, and torture is illegal. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. -San Cristobal-'s national animal is the Cristobalian parakeet, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

-San Cristobal- is ranked 10,097^th in the world and 6^th in Osakaland for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 406 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
