The Republic of The Boondock Saints is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by Il Duce with an even hand, and notable for its museums and concert halls, triple-decker prams, and compulsory military service. The hard-nosed, hard-working, devout population of 1.92 billion Boondock Saintsians 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 medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Rocco. The average income tax rate is 50.9%.

The all-consuming Boondock Saintsian economy, worth 178 trillion Dollars a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Uranium Mining, Book Publishing, and Automobile Manufacturing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 93,106 Dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.0 times as much as the poorest.

Town nameplates frequently raise giggles from passing tourists, the legislature keeps promising "more study" of corruption allegations against the parliamentary whip system, the government maintains a Department of Skulduggery, and Il Duce lives life on the open road - complete with groupies. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. The Boondock Saints's national animal is the Donnas Cat Skippy, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Boondockian.

The Boondock Saints is ranked 247,365th in the world and 4th in OMLB for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring -25 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
