The Matriarchy of Spironolactone is a huge, pleasant nation, remarkable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, irreverence towards religion, and suspicion of poets. The hard-working population of 948 million Spironolactoneans are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Defense, and Law & Order. The average income tax rate is 21.4%.

The Spironolactonean economy, worth 40.4 trillion Anti-Androgens a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Automobile Manufacturing, Uranium Mining, and Gambling. Average income is 42,599 Anti-Androgens, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.3 times as much as the poorest.

The country's famous rainforests are being bulldozed by the mining industry, organ donation is compulsory, scientists regularly clone human beings for research purposes, and singles on the dating scene no longer worry about looking their age. Crime is moderate. Spironolactone's national animal is the Steroid, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Spironolactone is ranked 157,634^th in the world and 833^rd in the Outback for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 355.67 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
