The United Socialist States of Span is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by M Shobacus Maz with a fair hand, and notable for its rum-swilling pirates, museums and concert halls, and complete lack of prisons. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful, devout population of 39.357 billion Spanners hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.
The medium-sized, liberal government juggles the competing demands of Education, Environment, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Maz. The average income tax rate is 88.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The very strong Spanner economy, worth an astonishing 10,406 trillion spannies a year, is highly specialized and led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Tourism. Average income is an amazing 264,415 spannies, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Hospitals have poor data security but send lots of bodies to be encrypted, third world countries are rich in "I Love Maz" t-shirts, a degree in M Shobacus Maz Science with a Minor in Awesomeology starts many political careers, and most foreigners can't name the leader of Span. Crime is totally unknown. Span's national animal is the donkey, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.
Span is ranked 9,333rd in the world and 394th in The North Pacific for Most Advanced Public Transport, scoring 3,379.02 on the Societal Mobility Rating.
