The Colony of Blontais is a very large, socially progressive nation, renowned for its daily referendums, ubiquitous missile silos, and absence of drug laws. The hard-working, democratic population of 176 million Blontaisians hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized, liberal, outspoken government prioritizes Industry, with Education, Defense, and Spirituality also on the agenda, while International Aid and Welfare are ignored. The average income tax rate is 29.1%.

The frighteningly efficient Blontaisian economy, worth 14.8 trillion dollars a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Gambling, Book Publishing, and Automobile Manufacturing. Black market activity is notable. Average income is 84,186 dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.3 times as much as the poorest.

Fan-made edits of old films have seen a sudden jump in quality, ratings for sitcom reruns are often much higher than election debates, religious epiphanies are often cited as a reason for high school drop-outs, and a cat may look at a king and a dude can look at an ass. Crime is a problem, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Blontais's national animal is the crocodile, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to heavy metals seepage into national waterways.

Blontais is ranked 224,962^nd in the world and 3,221^st in the West Pacific for Safest, scoring 23.9 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
