The Retired Wanderer of Francisco Sendrijas is a gargantuan, orderly nation, ruled by Dagohoy with an iron fist, and renowned for its rum-swilling pirates, museums and concert halls, and rampant corporate plagiarism. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 30.825 billion Francisco Sendrijasians 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."

The large, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Law & Order, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Manila. The average income tax rate is 77.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Francisco Sendrijasian economy, worth a remarkable 3,993 trillion cheese dips a year, is fairly diversified and dominated by the Retail industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Uranium Mining, and Information Technology. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 129,563 cheese dips, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.9 times as much as the poorest.

Politicians that report exaggerated crowd sizes for their speeches are dismissed for being delusional, vaccinations are mandatory, looting and pillaging are now considered vital intelligence-gathering activities, and town nameplates frequently raise giggles from passing tourists. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Francisco Sendrijas's national animal is the chicken-hawk, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution, and its national religion is Animism.

Francisco Sendrijas is ranked 45,451st in the world and 1st in Lost Horizon for Lowest Crime Rates, with 75.6 law-abiding acts per hour.
