The People's Republic of Spyr is a gargantuan, safe nation, ruled by Shiwen-daisu with an iron fist, and notable for its museums and concert halls, strictly enforced bedtime, and compulsory military service. The compassionate, cynical, humorless population of 28.652 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 10,604 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 370,114 sens, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Terrified tympanists are finding themselves on the front lines armed only with kettledrums, strange looking men with big red noses are found hiding behind bushes and inside dustbins, the Sithin State Museum is said to be haunted by ghastly musicians playing 'Nearer Violet to Thee', and not all rivers run to the sea. 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 470th in the world and 2nd in A Modern World for Longest Average Lifespans, with 97.71 years.
