The Crowned Republic of Spearwald is a gargantuan, safe nation, ruled by Prince Charles Mildora Auhnaus with an even hand, and remarkable for its ubiquitous missile silos, anti-smoking policies, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, hard-working population of 11.936 billion Spearwaldians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The relatively small, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Emery Hill. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 8.7%.

The frighteningly efficient Spearwaldian economy, worth a remarkable 2,000 trillion Spearwald Yuan a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Retail, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is an impressive 167,618 Spearwald Yuan, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 552,397 per year while the poor average 38,082, a ratio of 14.5 to 1.

City rooftops are pockmarked with the shattered remains of high velocity delivery drones, it is illegal to make racist remarks in public, only the rich can afford the latest medical innovations, and skateparks can be found in every city. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Spearwald's national animal is the Earth Viper, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Church of Adonai.

Spearwald is ranked 25,161st in the world and 1st in Emery for Lowest Crime Rates, with 85.83 law-abiding acts per hour.
