The Spooks in the Mind of A Creative Nothing is a mammoth, socially progressive nation, ruled by Nothing with a fair hand, and notable for its state-planned economy, daily referendums, and restrictive gun laws. The compassionate, democratic population of 9.108 billion Creative Nothingians are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The medium-sized, liberal, socially-minded, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Welfare, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Nothing. The average income tax rate is 54.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The Creative Nothingian economy, worth 603 trillion Nothings a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is fairly diversified, is led by the Basket Weaving industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Trout Farming, and Tourism. Average income is 66,278 Nothings, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

'Totally Not Partisan News' is a line item on the government budget, the saying "when pigs fly" has been changed to "when the lights work", deceased politicians spam the public with thousands of AI-generated voicemails, and the government is hounded to provide tissues whenever the feelings of the Dàguó people are hurt. Crime is totally unknown. A Creative Nothing's national animal is the Nothing, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Nothing.

A Creative Nothing is ranked 53,129th in the world and 1st in Spookville for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 1,870.94 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
