The People's Republic of Scotsaint is a small, environmentally stunning nation, notable for its state-planned economy, irreverence towards religion, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, democratic population of 32 million Scotsaintians are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The large, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Welfare, and Education. The average income tax rate is 61.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The strong Scotsaintian economy, worth 1.92 trillion Scotsaint Chervonets a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is dominated by the Trout Farming industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology and Automobile Manufacturing. Average income is 59,873 Scotsaint Chervonets, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.1 times as much as the poorest.

Woefully uninformed voters cast their ballots at random, a breakdown in Westphalian sovereignty has left political scientists dazed and confused, the media seems excessively interested in what Leader is wearing this season, and the nation grinds to a halt for afternoon tea. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Scotsaint's national animal is the horse, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Scotsaint is ranked 89,165^th in the world and 820^th in the Rejected Realms for Largest Governments, scoring 17.8 on the Bureaucratic Comprehensiveness Rating Scale Index.
