The Glooming Glow of The Blue Prince is a gargantuan, orderly nation, notable for its compulsory military service and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, cynical, devout population of 21.684 billion Blue Princeans are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The enormous, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Spirituality, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 50.3%.

The Blue Princean economy, worth 753 trillion Blue Bollars a year, is quite specialized and led by the Beef-Based Agriculture industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Gambling, and Uranium Mining. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 34,740 Blue Bollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.0 times as much as the poorest.

The government's religious works are headed by a New Age guru, Animal Liberationists are regularly jailed, an increasing percentage of the population's youth have homosexual parents, and graffiti graces every city's streets. Crime, especially youth-related, is almost non-existent, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. The Blue Prince's national animal is the Blue bBuffalo.

The Blue Prince is ranked 201,103^rd in the world and 14^th in Old Zealand for Largest Publishing Industry, scoring zero on the Bella Potter Productivity e-Index.
