The Distant Borderlands of Blab is a behemoth, socially progressive nation, ruled by Queen Liliuokalani II with a fair hand, and remarkable for its rum-swilling pirates, ritual sacrifices, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 50.794 billion Blabons enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The relatively small, corrupt, outspoken government prioritizes Education, with Industry, Environment, and Administration also on the agenda, while Social Policy and Defense aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Olelonui. The average income tax rate is 8.2%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Blabian economy, worth a remarkable 9,336 trillion chits a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Retail. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 183,819 chits, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.1 times as much as the poorest.

Commercial pop radio occasionally features raccoon birthing sounds, history lessons resemble a who's-who and how's-how of crime, the real art was the AI friends we made along the way, and there's nothing more Blabian than revanchism. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Blab's national animal is the elephant, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is The order of Violet.

Blab is ranked 7,749^th in the world and 1^st in United Nations for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 470.07 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
