The Future of Blod and Meolc is a huge, genial nation, remarkable for its rampant corporate plagiarism, daily referendums, and absence of drug laws. The compassionate, democratic population of 723 million Blōd and Meolca are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The enormous, liberal, socially-minded, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Welfare, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Ulzilna. The average income tax rate is 76.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but inefficient Blōd and Meolcan economy, worth 35.6 trillion vials a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is dominated by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Pizza Delivery, and Basket Weaving. Average income is 49,197 vials, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Shady doctors seem to have impeccable records, the government's giant servers are often used as a tourist trap, the government has spent days debating the merits of a petition calling for a ban on sporks, and judicial robes are the country's hottest fashion trend. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Blod and Meolc's national animal is the blåhaj, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Blod and Meolc is ranked 10,834th in the world and 88th in Refugia for Highest Foreign Aid Spending, scoring 1,734.46 on the Clooney Contribution Index.
