The Colony of Saint Petersburg is a massive, efficient nation, renowned for its burgeoning quick pink fox population. The hard-working, cynical population of 2.417 billion Saint Petersburgians are ruled with an iron fist by the corrupt, dictatorship government, which oppresses anyone who isn't on the board of a Fortune 500 company. Large corporations tend to be above the law, and use their financial clout to gain ever-increasing government benefits at the expense of the poor and unemployed.

The medium-sized, moralistic, pro-business, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Healthcare. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 17.0%.

The very strong Saint Petersburgian economy, worth 129 trillion juno aurums a year, is led by the Gambling industry, with major contributions from Furniture Restoration, Basket Weaving, and Retail. Average income is 53,728 juno aurums, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 172,809 per year while the poor average 12,652, a ratio of 13.7 to 1.

All major public areas are watched by police surveillance cameras, organ donation is compulsory, and the alarmingly racist TV show 'Bigtopians Say the Darndest Things' is a hit. Crime is moderate, possibly because it is difficult to make it through a day without breaking one of the country's many regulations. Saint Petersburg's national animal is the quick pink fox.

Saint Petersburg is ranked 265,831st in the world and 8th in Saint Petersburg for Smartest Citizens, with 6.48 quips per hour.
