The Spring Break Friendship of Keronika is a gargantuan, orderly nation, ruled by Sir Daniel with an iron fist, and remarkable for its deadly medical pandemics, ban on automobiles, and zero percent divorce rate. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 31.379 billion Keronikans 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 relatively small, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Defense, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of London. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 37.4%.

The frighteningly efficient Keronikan economy, worth an astonishing 17,075 trillion pounds a year, is broadly diversified and mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Retail. State-owned companies are common. Average income is a breathtaking 544,170 pounds, with the richest citizens earning 6.6 times as much as the poorest.

Public loudspeakers constantly tell citizens they are "happy people", politicians are often seen with soldiers pointing guns at their heads, dreams of entering the Super League have been relegated to the history books, and citizens are encouraged to show displeasure with politicians by poking them with sharp metal sticks. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Keronika's national animal is the cow, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Charismatic Wiccan Scientists.

Keronika is ranked 13,286th in the world and 8th in The Kingdom of Great Britain for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 4,479.03 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
