The Empire of San Juanico is a massive, devout nation, ruled by King George with an iron fist, and remarkable for its devotion to social welfare. Its hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 2.107 billion 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."

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent, corrupt, moralistic government stops and the rest of society begins, but it is mainly concerned with Defence, although Law & Order and Religion & Spirituality are secondary priorities. It meets every day to discuss matters of state in the capital city of San Juanico City. The average income tax rate is 100%. A powerhouse of a private sector is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, followed by Uranium Mining and Information Technology.

The colors pink and purple are banned from military unit insignia, an enormous health awareness programme is underway, society and government have been organized according to a feudal hierarchy, and government police forces protect public schools from the threat of protest. Crime -- especially youth-related -- is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. San Juanico's national animal is the DragonLion, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, its national religion is The Djmbthics, and its currency is the Dollar.

San Juanico is ranked 1st in the region and 3,700th in the world for Largest Furniture Restoration Industry.
