As the seat of the Federal government of Puertego, San Lina is home to many important institutions of the federal government, national monuments, and museums. This includes the capitol building, the Puertegan Supreme Court, the presidents residence and the headquarters of numerous government agencies. The city is where the Puertegan People's army bases most its institutions out of, however most of its operations are centered in and in the states around the Natiserve bay as to not potentially damage any infrastructure in or around the city, San Lina is home to the largest number of soldiers anywhere in Puertego with almost half the nation's armed forced being stationed there at any time.
The 2030 population for the city proper was approximately 2,670,800 across a land area of 3,432.9 square kilometers (1,325.5 sq mi). According to the most recent definition agreed upon by the federal and state governments, the population of the National Metro area, is 11,829,200, which makes it the fifteenth-largest metropolitan area in the world. In 2030 reports showed that San Lina generated close to 15% of Puertego's GDP and exported 25% of total exports along with being the recipient of 66% of Puertego's investment, San Lina has a nominal GDP of $210.74 billion.
San Lina has long been a region that has desired greater autonomy that the federal government of Puertego didn't want to give it, however this changed with the creation of a new constitution under the Puertegan White Flag Communist party which turned San Lina from just the capital to a municipality in San Lina with its own special rights and privileges that are greater than those offered to states, however the city still has only a fraction of the rights afforded to many other municipalities in other countries and is just as politically repressed as the rest of Puertego with independent news outlets being shut down by the government often, people being charged with several things to keep them from criticizing the government or exposing corruptionand much more.
