The Holy Empire of Blindz is a small, socially progressive nation, renowned for its burgeoning dodobird population. The quiet, industrious population of 20 million Blindzians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.
The large government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Education, and Law & Order. The average income tax rate is 41.6%, but much higher for the wealthy.
The Blindzian economy, worth 649 billion pesos a year, is quite specialized and mostly made up of the Trout Farming industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing and Gambling. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 32,450 pesos, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.1 times as much as the poorest.
Mantis shrimp studies is academia's fastest-growing field, human sacrifice to the metaphorical altar of Mammon ensures national prosperity, and the alarmingly racist TV show 'Bigtopians Say the Darndest Things' is a hit. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Blindz's national animal is the dodobird.
Blindz is ranked 243,194th in the world and 291st in The Black Hawks for Highest Disposable Incomes, with 18,950.96 Standard Monetary Units.
