The Dáxlamic Provincial Isles of Santa Samuel and Gracia is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Lýderis Bradford John with an even hand, and remarkable for its multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, state-planned economy, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, devout population of 8.012 billion Santa Samuel and Gracians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked, socially-minded morass — juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Education, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Dáxlam Avana. The average income tax rate is 82.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The large but inefficient Santa Samuel and Gracian economy, worth 383 trillion Dáxlamic Marks a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is dominated by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Cheese Exports, Uranium Mining, and Book Publishing. Average income is 47,925 Dáxlamic Marks, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The government is flooded with compensation requests, national parks have long lines of different gender-specific 'Porta-Pottys', crime is on the rise as DNA sampling has been all but outlawed, and Santa Samuel and Gracia recently hosted the least successful trade negotiations since The Phantom Menace. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Santa Samuel and Gracia's national animal is the Northern Bay Mongoose, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Dáxlam.

Santa Samuel and Gracia is ranked 109,994^th in the world and 89^th in Declansburg for Most Primitive, scoring -26.33 on the Scary Big Number Scale.
