The People's Republic of Blovatlas is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Antonius Yaroslav with a fair hand, and remarkable for its keen interest in outer space, ubiquitous missile silos, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic, devout population of 1.102 billion Blovatlasians love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.

The enormous, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Astali. The average income tax rate is 80.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Blovatlasian economy, worth 99.4 trillion altaras a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Tourism, and Basket Weaving. Average income is 90,176 altaras, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Baby dolls thrown in the trash are a leading cause of panic attacks, if a tree falls in the forest and nobody is there to hear it... Blovatlasian satellites can detect it, visions of giant pink wolverines are a common side effect after Blovatlasians eat their meals, and 'Totally Not Partisan News' is a line item on the government budget. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Blovatlas's national animal is the wolverine, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Blovatlas is ranked 3,922nd in the world and 9th in Karma for Highest Foreign Aid Spending, scoring 3,068.38 on the Clooney Contribution Index.
