The Loving Couple of -Ship-Fan is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by Urahara with an iron fist, and renowned for its parental licensing program, pith helmet sales, and ubiquitous missile silos. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 6.384 billion -Ship-Fanians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The enormous, corrupt, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Industry, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Soul Society. The average income tax rate is 81.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient -Ship-Fanian economy, worth 989 trillion dollars a year, is broadly diversified and mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Uranium Mining, Arms Manufacturing, Automobile Manufacturing, and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 155,073 dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.1 times as much as the poorest.

Producers insist that movie stars wear crash helmets in every scene, the country is governed by a clique of political insiders known colloquially as The Establishment, the government awards prizes to television shows featuring stereotype-breaking minority roles, and foreign investment has dropped to a trickle after laws were passed preventing investors from taking their earnings abroad. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, despite the fact that it is difficult to make it through a day without breaking one of the country's many laws. -Ship-Fan's national animal is the dove, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution, and its national religion is Cards.

-Ship-Fan is ranked 41,438th in the world and 2nd in Codex Ylvus for Most Stationary, with 1,076.65654705048 days.
