The Republic of Springfoxy is a huge, efficient nation, renowned for its barren, inhospitable landscape, ubiquitous missile silos, and irreverence towards religion. The compassionate, democratic population of 661 million Springfoxyians are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Industry, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Hurricane Utah. The average income tax rate is 29.5%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The thriving Springfoxyian economy, worth 47.5 trillion Fazcoins a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Uranium Mining, and Pizza Delivery. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 71,808 Fazcoins, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.0 times as much as the poorest.

Retired racing Foxes are served truffles for breakfast, children in school playgrounds can be heard chanting the hymns of the Order of Violet, the nation's soldiers often believe they're in the Air Force, and some say that Leader can't handle the truth but can handle truth-seekers. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Springfoxy's national animal is the Fox, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Springfoxy is ranked 117,704^th in the world and 31^st in Corvinia Refounded for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring 1,600.98 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
