The Republic of Blahalan is a massive, safe nation, ruled by Thalia with a fair hand, and notable for its multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, keen interest in outer space, and national health service. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 1.134 billion Blahalanians hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized, liberal, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Education, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Transto. The average income tax rate is 55.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Blahalanian economy, worth 149 trillion hajs a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Retail, and Beef-Based Agriculture. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 131,485 hajs, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.5 times as much as the poorest.

Commercial jingles are the nation's greatest export, kindergartners' favourite dance move is the stop-drop-and-roll, the only movement outdoors is of ramen-delivery drones, and all weapon research has been banned. Crime is totally unknown. Blahalan's national animal is the shark, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Blahalan is ranked 93,695^th in the world and 1,220^th in the South Pacific for Most Extensive Public Healthcare, scoring 1,968.35 on the Theresa-Nightingale Rating.
