The Spring Green Node of Node Spring Green is a colossal, efficient nation, renowned for its free-roaming dinosaurs, punitive income tax rates, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 4.568 billion Node Spring Greenians 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 medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Education. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 55.8%.

The all-consuming Node Spring Greenian economy, worth 517 trillion Nodecoins a year, is fairly diversified and dominated by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Woodchip Exports, and Cheese Exports. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 113,203 Nodecoins, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 386,392 per year while the poor average 24,405, a ratio of 15.8 to 1.

The colors pink and purple are banned from military unit insignia, clerics are taught that silence is golden and duct tape is silver, athletic teenagers are among the wealthiest members of society, and among slaves 'bastard' is an honorific rather than an insult. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Node Spring Green's national animal is the Circuit, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Node Spring Green is ranked 299,755^th in the world and 142^nd in The Node for Nicest Citizens, with 1.08 average smiles per day.
