The Holy Empire of StMichael is a small, cultured nation, notable for its frequent executions, public floggings, and compulsory military service. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, devout population of 29 million StMichaelians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The relatively small, moralistic, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, although Administration, Education, and Spirituality are also considered important, while International Aid is ignored. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 19.7%.

The very strong StMichaelian economy, worth 2.53 trillion Denaris a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Uranium Mining, Door-to-door Insurance Sales, and Woodchip Exports. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 87,078 Denaris, with the richest citizens earning 7.0 times as much as the poorest.

Carpet bombing has decimated Brasilistan's landscape and population, museums offer moralization or your money back, claims of genocide have been levied against the nation by international observers, and the international community waits with bated breath as the moment of nuclear warfare comes closer. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, despite the fact that it is difficult to make it through a day without breaking one of the country's many laws. StMichael's national animal is the Owl, which can occasionally be seen dodging aircraft in the nation's cities.

StMichael is ranked 111,154^th in the world and 53^rd in Cumberperry for Fattest Citizens, with 10.9 Obesity Rate.
