The State of Escobar de Santarem is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by the Governor with a fair hand, and notable for its burgeoning deer population. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 27.765 billion Escobar de Santaremians are effectively ruled by a group of massive corporations, who run for political office and provide their well-off citizens with world-class goods and services. Their poorer citizens, however, are mostly starving to death while being urged to go out and get real jobs. The populace has reasonably extensive civil rights, although these are mostly aimed at allowing them to buy whatever they like.

The relatively small, outspoken government prioritizes Welfare, with Healthcare, Education, and Industry also on the agenda, while Spirituality and Social Policy aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Capital Heights. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 9.5%.

The thriving Escobar de Santaremian economy, worth a remarkable 1,044 trillion betales a year, is quite specialized and led by the Trout Farming industry, with major contributions from Retail, Cheese Exports, and Book Publishing. Average income is 37,621 betales, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 108,956 per year while the poor average 10,294, a ratio of 10.6 to 1.

All tariffs have been abolished, the alarmingly racist TV show 'Bigtopians Say the Darndest Things' is a hit, Escobar de Santarem has designated Capital Heights as its capital city, and The Governor has just been declared ruler of Escobar de Santarem in an international press conference. Crime is a problem, probably because of the absence of a police force. Escobar de Santarem's national animal is the deer, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Escobar de Santarem is ranked 252,326^th in the world and 6^th in Manila for Lowest Crime Rates, with 50.95 law-abiding acts per hour.
