The Constitutional Monarchy of SPHRANTZES is a titanic, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Constantine XII Paleologos Dragases with an even hand, and remarkable for its complete lack of prisons, infamous sell-swords, and sprawling nuclear power plants. The compassionate, democratic, devout population of 14.26 billion SPHRANTZESians 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, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Lynx. The average income tax rate is 96.1%.

The frighteningly efficient SPHRANTZESian economy, worth a remarkable 3,339 trillion LEI a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Retail. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 234,173 LEI, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.3 times as much as the poorest.

Pharmaceutical companies emphatically promise that "your pills are in the mail" rather than admit any supply shortfall, gamers rarely face the consequences of their actions, owning a fishing rod can cause you to be subject to military questioning, and businesses are abandoning the city centre because of the lack of transport connections. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. SPHRANTZES's national animal is the Lynx, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Byzantyne Orthodox.

SPHRANTZES is ranked 2,894^th in the world and 2^nd in THE W0RLD for Largest Publishing Industry, scoring 22,951.34 on the Bella Potter Productivity e-Index.
