The Good Vibes of The Spirit is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, ruled by The Spirit with a fair hand, and renowned for its multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, rampant corporate plagiarism, and absence of drug laws. The hard-nosed, democratic population of 27.919 billion Spiritans hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized, liberal, outspoken government prioritizes Education, although Welfare, Healthcare, and Environment are also considered important, while Defense and Spirituality are ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Spirit City. The average income tax rate is 28.3%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The Spiritian economy, worth 769 trillion Gold Coins a year, is quite specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Gambling, Cheese Exports, and Soda Sales. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 27,570 Gold Coins, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.8 times as much as the poorest.

Prime commercial land is being swamped with archaeological teams, religious organizations are being forced to leave the country or pay income taxes like everybody else, international tensions are high as The Spirit threatens any government with the audacity to arrest its citizens, and new safety regulations require all cars manufactured in The Spirit to be bombproof. Crime is moderate, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. The Spirit's national animal is the Wind Spirit, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is The Booty.

The Spirit is ranked 216,872nd in the world and 76th in Spiritus for Largest Furniture Restoration Industry, scoring 108.18 on the Spitz-Pollish Productivity Index.
