The Santa States of Ho Ho Ho is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Santa with an even hand, and remarkable for its otherworldly petting zoo, ban on automobiles, and ritual sacrifices. The hard-nosed, hard-working, humorless, devout population of 25.561 billion Ho Ho Hoans have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The medium-sized, corrupt government prioritizes Defense, although Industry, Education, and Law & Order are also considered important, while Environment and Spirituality receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Betlehem. The average income tax rate is 74.1%.

The frighteningly efficient Ho Ho Hoan economy, worth a remarkable 4,496 trillion Hoes a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Woodchip Exports, Furniture Restoration, and Uranium Mining. Black market activity is rampant. Average income is an impressive 175,922 Hoes, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.1 times as much as the poorest.

An increasing percentage of the population's youth have homosexual parents, wildlife near farms is slowly becoming extinct, the country's famous rainforests are being bulldozed by the mining industry, and Pinkerton agents are called in to forcibly break up white collar strikes. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Ho Ho Ho's national animal is the reindeer, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Christianism.

Ho Ho Ho is ranked 34,354^th in the world and 12^th in Christmas for Most Patriotic, with 35.59 flags saluted per person per day.
