The Nomadic Peoples of Pilgrim Madonna is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, notable for its museums and concert halls, zero percent divorce rate, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic, devout population of 3.83 billion Pilgrims are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Spirituality, Welfare, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Bethlehem. The average income tax rate is 73.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The thriving Pilgrim economy, worth 255 trillion Frankincenses a year, is quite specialized and led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Trout Farming, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Tourism. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 66,609 Frankincenses, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

It is mandatory to learn evolution in schools, exports are stamped with "made by the invisible hand you commies", sneezing pedestrians are grabbed by alley-lurking doctors, and wrongful arrests abound as 'criminals' blame the guy next to them. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Pilgrim Madonna's national animal is the Lamb, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Christianity.

Pilgrim Madonna is ranked 305,656th in the world and 25th in Catholic Art Gallery for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring -13.77 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
