The Saint of Simon the Zealot is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by Simon the Canaanite with an even hand, and notable for its rum-swilling pirates, complete lack of prisons, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 2.794 billion disciples are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Law & Order, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Cana of Galilee. The average income tax rate is 45.2%.

The very strong Christian economy, worth 175 trillion Tálantons a year, is led by the Soda Sales industry, with significant contributions from Pizza Delivery, Tourism, and Retail. Black market activity is frequent. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 62,823 Tálantons, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.8 times as much as the poorest.

Cheap textbooks have replaced coasters at college ragers, many in Simon the Zealot are born in the purple, banana distribution among collective farm workers is an important topic in public discourse, and bargain-hunting is considered unpatriotic. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Simon the Zealot's national animal is the Sheep, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Simon the Zealot is ranked 153,898th in the world and 13th in Cenacle for Largest Populations, with 2.79 billion capita.
