The Kingdom of Santa Pace is a colossal, genial nation, ruled by His Majesty the King of Santa Pace with an even hand, and notable for its national health service, daily referendums, and irreverence towards religion. The compassionate population of 8.262 billion Santa Paceans 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 Education, Healthcare, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Ulula. The average income tax rate is 95.2%.

The frighteningly efficient Santa Pacean economy, worth a remarkable 1,061 trillion Lire a year, is quite specialized and led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Basket Weaving, and Tourism. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 128,424 Lire, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Aspiring musicians couldn't give away their music if they tried, mountain rescue missions can end with more people lost than found, the latest national park is visited by more sharks than people, and military spending is on the increase. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Santa Pace's national animal is the Owl, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Santa Pace is ranked 5,296^th in the world and 80^th in 10000 Islands for Lowest Crime Rates, with 115.17 law-abiding acts per hour.
