“your decisions shape your nation”

The Commonwealth of James Bluntus is a massive, safe nation, renowned for its enforced nudity. Its compassionate population of 2.541 billion 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.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defence, and Education. It meets every day to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Frema. The average income tax rate is 50%, and even higher for the wealthy. A powerhouse of a private sector is led by the Information Technology, Tourism, and Automobile Manufacturing industries.

Citizens are regularly arrested in queues for 'loitering', the government regularly hires contractors to construct high rise apartments, the government has cut taxes in the face of widespread tax evasion, and CEOs and corporate executives are frequently found striking for better stock options. Crime -- especially youth-related -- is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. James Bluntus's national animal is the Cat, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its currency is the Bluntian.

James Bluntus is ranked 14th in the region and 9,115th in the world for Best Weather.
