The Lost Island of Spadanera is a massive, safe nation, ruled by The Three Stooges with an even hand, and renowned for its punitive income tax rates. Its hard-nosed, hard-working population of 4.461 billion enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent, liberal government stops and the rest of society begins, but it devotes most of its attentions to Education, with areas such as Religion & Spirituality and Social Welfare receiving almost no funds by comparison. It meets every day to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Wallah-Wallah. The average income tax rate is 71%, and even higher for the wealthy. A powerhouse of a private sector is led by the Gambling industry, followed by Book Publishing and Information Technology.

The fire protection service is wholly government-funded, organ donation rates are among the lowest in the region, fur coats have become the latest fashion trend, and Boogers are frequently shot for looking at people 'in a funny way'. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Spadanera's national animal is the Booger, which is also the nation's favorite main course, its national religion is Stoogism, and its currency is the Loogie.

Spadanera is ranked 74th in 10000 Islands and 2,783rd in the world for Healthiest Citizens, with 15 Standard Bananas Ingested per capita per day.
