The Terwinian Technate Colony of Blubka is a massive, cultured nation, ruled by Delas Trabonske with a fair hand, and renowned for its anti-smoking policies, otherworldly petting zoo, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic population of 1.689 billion Blubkans hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized, corrupt, liberal, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Portatsk. The average income tax rate is 68.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Blubkan economy, worth 254 trillion Terwinian Tzerks a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a slick, highly efficient, fairly diversified black market in Information Technology, Book Publishing, Tourism, and Arms Manufacturing. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an impressive 150,423 Terwinian Tzerks, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.3 times as much as the poorest.

Promising seven years of bad luck leads to seven years of community service, the wreckages of bombed planes that litter Blubka are highly popular tourist destinations, prisoners have been known to host cooking and home décor television shows, and burnt-out forty-foot-tall wicker men dot the countryside. Crime is totally unknown. Blubka's national animal is the Klossack Falcon, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Christianity.

Blubka is ranked 81,003^rd in the world and 18^th in Thegye for Most Stationary, with 286.7865872898 days.
