The Colony of Saint Charssaine is a small, safe nation, remarkable for its compulsory military service and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, hard-working population of 20 million Saint Charssaineans have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Administration. The average income tax rate is 37.6%.

The Saint Charssainean economy, worth 856 billion Scrips a year, is led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Trout Farming, Information Technology, and Retail. Average income is 42,826 Scrips, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.6 times as much as the poorest.

Organ donation is compulsory, it is illegal to make racist remarks in public, and enemy navies sail within bombardment range of major coastal cities with impunity. Crime, especially youth-related, is almost non-existent, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Saint Charssaine's national animal is the bison, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Saint Charssaine is ranked 93,589^th in the world and 105^th in Lesbian for Safest, scoring 85.9 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
