The Sacred Commonwealth of Santa Joanna is a gargantuan, safe nation, notable for its free-roaming dinosaurs, complete lack of prisons, and smutty television. The compassionate, cheerful, devout population of 19.716 billion Joannatives are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked, socially-minded morass — juggles the competing demands of Education, Environment, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Upper Bonopolis. The average income tax rate is 97.1%.

The frighteningly efficient Santa Joanian economy, worth a remarkable 2,473 trillion graalars a year, is extremely specialized and solely comprised of the Tourism industry. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 125,444 graalars, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Many whiskies taste suspiciously like automobile radiators, bemused citizens are encouraged to sing foreign-language hymns of religions they have never heard of, contemporary art museums showcase the latest in centuries-old art, and male cubicle workers stand up every time a woman enters the room. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Santa Joanna's national animal is the dove, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Cult of Agnes.

Santa Joanna is ranked 142,021st in the world and 201st in Forest for Most Stationary, with 196.23399246572 days.
