The Theocracy of Blitznia is a massive, safe nation, ruled by Top Krieg with an iron fist, and notable for its museums and concert halls, parental licensing program, and punitive income tax rates. The cynical, devout population of 1.349 billion Blitznians are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

The large, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Industry, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Lightning City. The average income tax rate is 69.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient a Blitznian economy, worth 157 trillion coins a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is broadly diversified, is led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Retail, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is an impressive 116,857 coins, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Not even good behaviour will get transgender inmates any special perks, disaster relief budgets are growing like wildfire, Blitznia is notorious for its citizens' infidelity, and retirement homes are often fitted with luxurious suites. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Blitznia's national animal is the yellow-spotted Amazon River turtle, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans, and its national religion is The Bitzkrieg.

Blitznia is ranked 195,669th in the world and 379th in Europeia for Largest Populations, with 1.35 billion capita.
