The Principality of Principado Blake is a mammoth, genial nation, ruled by Reina Be Blake with a fair hand, and notable for its prohibition of alcohol, smutty television, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic population of 7.43 billion Blakenses 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 government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Violet House. The average income tax rate is 95.9%.

The frighteningly efficient Principado Blakean economy, worth a remarkable 1,225 trillion Australs a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Arms Manufacturing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 164,914 Australs, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Any body part that can be cut off a person is no longer considered to be their property, 'To Regulate And Beyond' is the unofficial motto of the Principado Blakean Space Agency, most citizens in Principado Blake are abject pyrophobes after extremely graphic pamphlets were mailed nationwide by the government, and janitors and factory workers are often better educated than the bosses they work for. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Principado Blake's national animal is the Perricornio, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is NeoCredentism.

Principado Blake is ranked 306,436th in the world and 1,060th in Talonia for Fattest Citizens, with 1.87 Obesity Rate.
