The Economic and Political Union of Blon Gre is a colossal, genial nation, ruled by the soulful world of snow monkeys with a fair hand, and renowned for its rum-swilling pirates, keen interest in outer space, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic, cheerful population of 8.682 billion Blon Greans hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The large, liberal, outspoken government prioritizes Education, with Environment, Administration, and Welfare also on the agenda, while Defense and Spirituality are ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Villi Rakkaus. The average income tax rate is 98.4%.

The frighteningly efficient Blon Grean economy, worth a remarkable 2,036 trillion kronor a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Retail. Average income is an amazing 234,540 kronor, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

An online tea-bagging epidemic is getting worse and (meta)worse, "The soulful world of snow monkeys got your tongue?" has become a popular idiom, nature reserves often contain artificial waterfalls and concrete paths, and volunteers are signing up to take arms against an incursion of flesh-eating zombies (Blon Gre has found 5 easter eggs). Crime is totally unknown. Blon Gre's national animal is the snow monkey, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Blon Gre is ranked 1,538th in the world and 4th in Scandinavia for Highest Food Quality, scoring 308.14 on the Meeshlin-Starr Index.
