The United Dependentist Entities of Spainsapien is a huge, efficient nation, remarkable for its public floggings, restrictive gun laws, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate population of 576 million Sepasenian are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.

The large, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Administration, and Social Policy. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Gran Luréin. The average income tax rate is 58.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The very strong Sepasenian economy, worth 36.5 trillion Great Sepasenian Euros a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Beef-Based Agriculture industry, with significant contributions from Uranium Mining, Woodchip Exports, and Information Technology. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 63,437 Great Sepasenian Euros, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Artists attempt to convince the Hardship Fund that their unmade bed is a masterpiece, it's surprisingly hard to find pictures of the bad haircuts from Leader's childhood, the government considers it a sacred duty to video bikini-clad beach swimmers, and citizens receive notices of disenfranchisement along with their parking tickets. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Spainsapien's national animal is the Sepasenian Turtle.

Spainsapien is ranked 79,432nd in the world and 27th in Aspen for Most Patriotic, with 20.71 flags saluted per person per day.
