The Democratic Republic of Blahcostan is a massive, cultured nation, ruled by Brahumdagh Bugti with an even hand, and renowned for its avowedly heterosexual populace, enslaved workforce, and otherworldly petting zoo. The compassionate, devout population of 3.591 billion Blahcostanians 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 large, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Industry, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of karachi. The average income tax rate is 68.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Blahcostanian economy, worth 396 trillion rupees 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, quite specialized black market in Information Technology, Tourism, Arms Manufacturing, and Furniture Restoration. 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 110,415 rupees, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.3 times as much as the poorest.

It is illegal to distribute Girl Guide Cookies without an advanced food hygiene diploma, imitation is the sincerest form of felony, auditors are gutting every governmental department, and mandatory updates on software drivers often bring life to a halt. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Blahcostan's national animal is the camel, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Hinduism.

Blahcostan is ranked 19,930^th in the world and 1,017^th in The North Pacific for Lowest Crime Rates, with 81.6 Law-abiding Acts Per Hour.
