The Republic of SP35 is a very large, efficient nation, notable for its frequent executions, public floggings, and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 438 million SP35ians are effectively ruled by a group of massive corporations, who run for political office and provide their well-off citizens with world-class goods and services. Their poorer citizens, however, are mostly starving to death while being urged to go out and get real jobs. The populace has reasonably extensive civil rights, although these are mostly aimed at allowing them to buy whatever they like.

The tiny government juggles the competing demands of Education, Law & Order, and Industry. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 6.6%.

The thriving SP35ian economy, worth 39.3 trillion bitcoins a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Retail, Information Technology, and Gambling. Average income is 89,776 bitcoins, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 281,533 per year while the poor average 21,935, a ratio of 12.8 to 1.

Sports club owners are having a moneyball, old folks reminisce about the last time someone was acquitted of a crime, drills and shovels have been banned as the government cracks down on any means of fracking, and the nation's counterintelligence budget is all up in the air. Crime is relatively low. SP35's national animal is the dolphin, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.

SP35 is ranked 113,470th in the world and 623rd in Pacifism for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring 1,937.59 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
