The 1989 hit of Love Shack is a massive, cultured nation, ruled by Fred Schneider with an even hand, and notable for its smutty television, frequent executions, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 3.076 billion Love Shackians enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Education, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Cosmic Thing. The average income tax rate is 92.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Love Shackian economy, worth 320 trillion Jukebox monies a year, is highly specialized and mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 104,073 Jukebox monies, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

There has been a rapid increase of noise complaints over the sound of buzzing bees, members of the government all have oddly similar anecdotes about their childhoods, feuilletons can only be deciphered with a Galliennais dictionary, and government theft from poor artists to give to rich allies has been dubbed the "reverse Robin Hood" policy. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Love Shack's national animal is the Whale, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans, and its national religion is The B-52's.

Love Shack is ranked 8,186th in the world and 325th in The North Pacific for Most Advanced Public Education, scoring 12,256.69 on the Edu-tellignce® Test Score.
