The People's Republic of Spyr is a gargantuan, orderly nation, ruled by Shiwen-daisu with an iron fist, and renowned for its state-planned economy, complete lack of prisons, and absence of drug laws. The compassionate, cynical, humorless population of 28.568 billion Spyrans are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

The large, corrupt, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Sithin. The income tax rate is 100%.

The frighteningly efficient Spyran economy, worth an astonishing 10,569 trillion sens a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is broadly diversified, is led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Uranium Mining, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Average income is an amazing 369,985 sens, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

People who eat pizza with lactase supplements are arrested by the flavour police, solar death ray construction will commence as soon as it rains sens, the threat of economic apocalypse brings out the best in people, and self-sufficiency is built on seizing foreign assets. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Spyr's national animal is the dragon, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Spyr is ranked 441st in the world and 2nd in A Modern World for Most Developed, scoring 99.24 on the Human Development Index.
