The United Federation of Blitzakartz is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by Luo Kun with an iron fist, and notable for its compulsory military service, parental licensing program, and otherworldly petting zoo. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 10.73 billion Blitzens are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The medium-sized, corrupt, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, with Education, Industry, and Healthcare also on the agenda, while Spirituality isn't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Taipei. The average income tax rate is 97.6%.

The frighteningly efficient Blitzakartzian economy, worth a remarkable 2,882 trillion Pesetas a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is broadly diversified, is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Retail, and Book Publishing. Average income is an amazing 268,627 Pesetas, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

War is made in the name of love, thieves find battery shops juicier targets than banks, metal detectors at school gates make sure that teenagers are carrying at least one sidearm, and cat memes without alt text are now illegal. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Blitzakartz's national animal is the Falcon, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Undefined.

Blitzakartz is ranked 107,470th in the world and 1st in The Dawn of Unity for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring 1,530.19 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
