The Vespid State of BlackLight Covenant is a gargantuan, safe nation, ruled by Vazarrah IV with an even hand, and notable for its museums and concert halls, otherworldly petting zoo, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, humorless population of 13.477 billion BlackLight Covenantians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The medium-sized, corrupt government prioritizes Defense, although Education, Healthcare, and Industry are also considered important, while Spirituality and International Aid aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Terbarlynton. The average income tax rate is 97.9%.

The frighteningly efficient BlackLight Covenantian economy, worth a remarkable 3,258 trillion Retals a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is fairly diversified, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Tourism, and Book Publishing. Average income is an amazing 241,817 Retals, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Bus ads propagandize causes ranging from sexual revolution to religious pogroms, consumption of cat memes has skyrocketed, the children of BlackLight Covenant are often remarked upon for their cheery attitude to extreme violence, and pulling weeds is seen as a threat to national security. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. BlackLight Covenant's national animal is the Giant Moth, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Unknown.

BlackLight Covenant is ranked 2,079^th in the world and 12^th in The Glorious Nations of Iwaku for Smartest Citizens, with 180.48 quips per hour.
