The Sky Blue Node of Node Sky Blue is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, renowned for its public floggings, free-roaming dinosaurs, and stringent health and safety legislation. The cynical, devout population of 4.701 billion Node Sky Blueans are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Industry. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 53.1%.

The frighteningly efficient Node Sky Bluean economy, worth 557 trillion Nodecoins 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 large, well-organized, broadly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Tourism, Information Technology, and Basket Weaving. 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 118,659 Nodecoins, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 363,586 per year while the poor average 29,976, a ratio of 12.1 to 1.

Scientists are not permitted to ask questions, stony-faced prosecutors play loud gangster rap music during court proceedings, the family summer vacation has become a thing of the past following the introduction of the year-round school year, and five-year-olds chanting "Little Miss Muffet" are accused of bullying arachnophobes. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Node Sky Blue's national animal is the Circuit, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Node Sky Blue is ranked 46,940^th in the world and 73^rd in The Node for Highest Average Incomes, with 118,659.32 Standard Monetary Units.
