The Kingdom of Blackledge is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by King Kevan III Ismiril with an even hand, and remarkable for its pith helmet sales, otherworldly petting zoo, and ubiquitous missile silos. The hard-nosed, devout population of 40.478 billion Blackledgics have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The relatively small government prioritizes Education, with Healthcare, Defense, and Industry also on the agenda, while Social Policy and Spirituality receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Laurel. The average income tax rate is 38.2%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Blackledgic economy, worth a remarkable 8,389 trillion Blackledgic pounds a year, is led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Arms Manufacturing. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an amazing 207,261 Blackledgic pounds, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Basic multiplication is all you need to know to have a child, drug deals return to the streets as legions of undercover officers stalk the dark web, mandatory updates on software drivers often bring life to a halt, and colonists who were promised new lands find only war-torn devastation. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Blackledge's national animal is the Callan tiger, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Wyrdism.

Blackledge is ranked 290,475^th in the world and 3^rd in 00000 Land of Nod for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring -19.24 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
