The Republic of Bleszno is a large, socially progressive nation, renowned for its irreverence towards religion, absence of drug laws, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate population of 122 million Blesznians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The medium-sized, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Welfare, and Education. The average income tax rate is 40.7%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but inefficient Blesznoan economy, worth 5.77 trillion Crowns a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Beef-Based Agriculture industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Tourism, and Trout Farming. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 47,282 Crowns, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Lending money has become a major liability, increasing inclusiveness is a sign of the times, visions of giant pink turtles are a common side effect after Blesznians eat their meals, and parents seeking custody have to write a five-thousand word analysis of their child's imaginary friend. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Bleszno's national animal is the turtle, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.

Bleszno is ranked 24,387^th in the world and 72^nd in Aesica for Nicest Citizens, with 21.52 average smiles per day.
