The Imperial Tsardom of Sparkvernia is a gargantuan, orderly nation, ruled by Tsar Kasimir Sparkos with an iron fist, and notable for its ubiquitous missile silos, unlimited-speed roads, and prohibition of alcohol. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 28.165 billion Sparkvernians 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 tiny, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Czargorod. The average income tax rate is 2.5%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Sparkvernian economy, worth a remarkable 8,742 trillion novorubles a year, is broadly diversified and dominated by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Uranium Mining, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 310,385 novorubles, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.0 times as much as the poorest.

School uniforms are compulsory, children who display even minimal sporting aptitude are immediately assigned a personal trainer, a proud mining community is considering a rebellion after the Capital officially renamed them 'District XII', and most of the nation's wealthy aristocrats are dentists. 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. Sparkvernia's national animal is the white hawk, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Sparkvernian Tsarism.

Sparkvernia is ranked 12,519th in the world and 4th in Confederation of Corrupt Dictators for Most Stationary, with 1,999.9064283924 days.
