The Funny frogs of Speerland is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by norm1ka with a fair hand, and renowned for its pith helmet sales, compulsory military service, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, democratic population of 3.382 billion Spedometers love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.

The large, socially-minded, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Tawau. The average income tax rate is 46.2%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The large but inefficient Speerlandian economy, worth 153 trillion 105 mm DM23 APFSDS a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a slick, highly efficient black market in Basket Weaving, Tourism, Uranium Mining, and Book Publishing. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is 45,254 105 mm DM23 APFSDS, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Oddly simian-looking religious thugs beat up anyone who suggests humans are related to monkeys, it is illegal to brush crumbs off your clothing outdoors, Speerlandian soldiers are assured their new ray-guns will finally power up after the next round of ominous chanting, and Spedometers have replaced bears in a popular idiom. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Speerland's national animal is the M4A3E2 Jumbo, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Frogism.

Speerland is ranked 70,852nd in the world and 26th in Authotaria for Lowest Crime Rates, with 69.95 law-abiding acts per hour.
