The Empire of Saint Roosevelt is a huge, efficient nation, renowned for its fear of technology, compulsory military service, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, hard-working population of 558 million Saint Rooseveltses are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Industry, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Theodore Roosevelt City. The average income tax rate is 47.6%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The thriving Saint Rooseveltian economy, worth 31.8 trillion Roosevelt-Marks a year, is quite specialized and led by the Cheese Exports industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Retail, and Automobile Manufacturing. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 56,962 Roosevelt-Marks, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Hell is not always other people, fixing attendance at women's matches is a matter of "when they go low, we go high... funding", turning eighteen is often referred to as the 'Age of Aquarius', and police regularly arrest families playing Monopoly. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Saint Roosevelt's national animal is the Boer Goat, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Saint Roosevelt is ranked 134,006^th in the world and 508^th in 10000 Islands for Largest Governments, scoring 14.14 on the Bureaucratic Comprehensiveness Rating Scale Index.
