The Spam of Spams is a massive, socially progressive nation, ruled by Mysterious Shadow Council Chairperson with an even hand, and renowned for its barren, inhospitable landscape, absence of drug laws, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, hard-working, devout population of 4.587 billion Spammians enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The tiny, liberal government is primarily concerned with Spirituality, with Healthcare and Education also on the agenda, while Social Policy and International Aid are ignored. The average income tax rate is 9.1%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The Spamsian economy, worth 203 trillion Cans of Spam a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Uranium Mining, Gambling, and Arms Manufacturing. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 44,313 Cans of Spam, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.5 times as much as the poorest.

Recent events in Dàguó have been classified 'for Mysterious Shadow Council Chairperson's eyes only', the legislature keeps promising "more study" of corruption allegations against the parliamentary whip system, midnight pizza breaks are common among the work-from-home population, and businesses have become paranoid as waves of lawsuits sweep the nation. Crime, especially youth-related, is moderate, probably because of the absence of a police force. Spams's national animal is the sentient glob of spam, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Spams is ranked 127,043^rd in the world and 10^th in Lardyland for Largest Furniture Restoration Industry, scoring 2,341.37 on the Spitz-Pollish Productivity Index.
