The Democratic Republic of Garth Blu is a large, safe nation, notable for its compulsory military service. The hard-working, devout population of 106 million Garth Bluans have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The medium-sized government prioritizes Spirituality, with Education, Welfare, and Law & Order also on the agenda, while Industry and Social Policy receive no funds. The average income tax rate is 20.1%.

The Garth Bluan economy, worth 5.16 trillion Aidas a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Automobile Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Furniture Restoration, Woodchip Exports, and Pizza Delivery. Average income is 48,665 Aidas, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.7 times as much as the poorest.

A large-scale revitalization of the education system is underway, the alarmingly racist TV show 'Bigtopians Say the Darndest Things' is a hit, the men in trenchcoats hanging around playgrounds are actually police officers, and tourists from around the world come to visit the country's famous rainforests. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Garth Blu's national animal is the Wolf, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Garth Blu is ranked 85,055^th in the world and 1^st in Flathinnis for Safest, scoring 89.36 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
