The Pacific Islands of Saint Pinole II is a massive, cultured nation, ruled by President Smokey with an iron fist, and renowned for its public floggings, ritual sacrifices, and otherworldly petting zoo. The hard-nosed, cynical, devout population of 1.97 billion Pinolians 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, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, although Law & Order, Education, and Industry are also considered important, while Welfare receives no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Kaleponi Hou. The average income tax rate is 64.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming Pinolian economy, worth 216 trillion Daimana Kalas a year, is quite specialized and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology and Tourism. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 109,680 Daimana Kalas, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.0 times as much as the poorest.

Creating cardboard imitations of missiles is a new top-secret military project, the masses are surrendering their civil liberties without complaint for the sake of shopping convenience, deceased politicians' MyFace profiles are unanimously pro-incumbent, and imitation is the sincerest form of felony. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Saint Pinole II's national animal is the Grizzly Bear, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Lutheran.

Saint Pinole II is ranked 8,326^th in the world and 2^nd in NATO 2022 for Most Conservative, scoring 91.5 on the Bush-Santorum Dawning Terror Index.
