The Democratic Republic of Spinazieland is a gargantuan, safe nation, ruled by President Simon with a fair hand, and renowned for its irreverence towards religion, punitive income tax rates, and restrictive gun laws. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 27.631 billion Spinazielandians are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The enormous, liberal government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Hoofdegem. The average income tax rate is 94.6%.

The frighteningly efficient Spinazielandic economy, worth a remarkable 4,140 trillion spinazies a year, is highly specialized and led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Tourism and Information Technology. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 149,833 spinazies, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Rumor has it that President Simon has won three lotteries in a row, RPG fans reminisce fondly about when people thought they were evil and dangerous rather than geeky and socially inept, Little League matches are often attended by riot police with water cannon... just in case, and government statisticians explain census inaccuracies by declaring that "Sith happens". Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Spinazieland's national animal is the cuckoo, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Spinazieland is ranked 14,684th in the world and 830th in Osiris for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 332.78 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
