The Holy Protectorate of Saint Constable is a titanic, genial nation, ruled by Viceroyal Council with an even hand, and notable for its compulsory military service. The devout population of 15.526 billion Lusoes have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and look forward to their next free and open election, to be held on an as-yet unannounced date.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Education, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Alfarrobeira. The average income tax rate is 32.5%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The large but inefficient Saint Constablean economy, worth 571 trillion soberanoes a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Automobile Manufacturing, Furniture Restoration, and Pizza Delivery. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 36,795 soberanoes, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.2 times as much as the poorest.

The government frequently panders to parents with boutique tax credits, the airship business has been driven out of the country by strict regulations and high fines, gambling is outlawed, and children's bedrooms are often decorated with posters of successful accountants. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Saint Constable's national animal is the stork, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is The Throne of Yearning.

Saint Constable is ranked 132,732^nd in the world and 5^th in Catholics for Most Cultured, scoring 64 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
