The Republic of SP26 is a very large, environmentally stunning nation, notable for its prohibition of alcohol, suspicion of poets, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-working population of 473 million SP26ians 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 medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Education, and Defense. The average income tax rate is 37.4%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The very strong SP26ian economy, worth 26.8 trillion bitcoins a year, is quite specialized and led by the Uranium Mining industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Trout Farming, and Basket Weaving. Black market activity is frequent. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 56,679 bitcoins, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.3 times as much as the poorest.

The airship business has been driven out of the country by strict regulations and high fines, yawning is a sure sign of unemployment, citizens try to pass off bottlecaps they found in their backyards as historical artifacts, and some are born loving old plays and some have old plays thrust upon them. Crime, especially youth-related, is relatively low. SP26's national animal is the lion, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

SP26 is ranked 124,873^rd in the world and 23^rd in SP farm for Highest Drug Use, scoring 131.37 on the Pineapple Fondness Rating.
