The 41 Percent Tax Evasion Rate of The Blue Fire is a massive, cultured nation, ruled by Meel with an even hand, and renowned for its ban on automobiles, multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate population of 2.831 billion Fi'rei are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Environment, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Morhal-Bismuth. The average income tax rate is 90.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Fi'rean economy, worth 329 trillion Flats a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing. Average income is an impressive 116,311 Flats, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Rare art has become a significant factor in negotiating all foreign trade agreements, the police go to great efforts to seize contraband favored by politicians on the police oversight committee, students consistently complain that the wi-fi ate their homework, and brave curators do battle with disorganised government libraries. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. The Blue Fire's national animal is the Firefish, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.

The Blue Fire is ranked 7,780^th in the world and 27^th in Refugia for Lowest Crime Rates, with 106.24 law-abiding acts per hour.
