The Free Land of Springwalla is a huge, cultured nation, remarkable for its daily referendums, absence of drug laws, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate population of 581 million Springwallans are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large government prioritizes Education, although Healthcare, Welfare, and Law & Order are also considered important. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Ennui. The average income tax rate is 71.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The thriving Springwallan economy, worth 51.0 trillion Domars a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Beef-Based Agriculture, Tourism, and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 87,760 Domars, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Mountain rescue missions can end with more people lost than found, government opponents tend to have their patents rejected immediately, going on a diet invalidates your passport, and earthquake sirens are a leading cause of hearing loss. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Springwalla's national animal is the lesser executive emu, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Springwalla is ranked 42,520^th in the world and 960^th in the South Pacific for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 169.31 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
