Introduction

The Divine Republic of Sanctaria, commonly referred to as Sanctaria or the Divine Republic, is a sovereign state located in the south east of the International Democratic Union. It shares a land border with Cachette de lions to the south and north east, and a water border with Malabra to the west.

Sanctaria is a unitary state and constitutional republic governed as a parliamentary democracy, with its seat of government in Sanctus, the capital city. It has three oversees protectorates which, though nominally falling under the jurisdiction of the Divine Republic, do not form part of it. These are remnants of the Papal States of Sanctaria which, at its height, contained more than forty-two states.

Sanctaria is a very highly developed country, with a very high Human Development Index rating, and ranks among the wealthiest countries in the world in terms of GDP. It is a member of the World Assembly, among various other international and interregional organisations. The country is also ranked highly for press freedom, economic freedom and democracy and political freedom.
