The Grand Duchy of Speyer is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Veronica Emter with a fair hand, and remarkable for its museums and concert halls, compulsory military service, and smutty television. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic, devout population of 27.69 billion Speyerians live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.

The medium-sized, liberal, pro-business, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Public Transport, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Speier. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 39.8%.

The powerhouse Speyerian economy, worth a remarkable 2,691 trillion Golds a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Beef-Based Agriculture industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Information Technology, and Cheese Exports. Average income is 97,204 Golds, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 296,433 per year while the poor average 24,724, a ratio of 12.0 to 1.

10-year-olds who struggle with integrating by parts are considered slow learners, the nation's universities are often mistaken for foreign embassies, job opportunities abound in the Hole Recycling industry, and citizens are permitted to carry concealed handguns. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Speyer's national animal is the Prairie Chicken, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Speyer is ranked 24,629^th in the world and 1^st in CrazyKids for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 2,968.87 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
