The Archetypical Evil Empire of Rebels and Saints is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by nobody with an iron fist, and notable for its museums and concert halls, barren, inhospitable landscape, and pith helmet sales. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 2.791 billion rebels and saints are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The medium-sized, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of The Tenth Circle of Hell. The average income tax rate is 55.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming rebellious and saintly economy, worth 339 trillion dollars a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Retail, and Book Publishing. Black market activity is rampant. Average income is an impressive 121,581 dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.5 times as much as the poorest.

Frisbee games on college quadrangles are grounds for expulsion, more sidewalk is dedicated to animals than people, recruitment posters proclaim the army to be both fabulous and fashionable, and mysterious black helicopters menace farmers to ensure compliance with straitjacketing agricultural policies. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Rebels and Saints's national animal is the fer-de-lance, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Arcane Magic.

Rebels and Saints is ranked 181,827^th in the world and 11^th in United Nations of Liberalia for Most Primitive, scoring -181.75 on the Scary Big Number Scale.
