The Republican Protectorate of Nes Blando is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by Governor Of the Republic with an even hand, and notable for its unlimited-speed roads, cultivated feral children, and astonishingly minimal parenting. The hard-nosed, humorless population of 5.555 billion Nes Blandoans 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.

The medium-sized, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Law & Order, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of California. The average income tax rate is 69.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Nes Blandoan economy, worth a remarkable 1,067 trillion Lips a year, is broadly diversified and mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Tourism, Arms Manufacturing, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Uranium Mining. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 192,213 Lips, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.1 times as much as the poorest.

Governor Of the Republic has no checks and balances after the upper house was abolished, the government is pouring money into 'Operation Enduring Democracy', scientific journals publish third-graders' school essays, and politicians are battling inequality by declaring themselves better than everyone else. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Nes Blando's national animal is the Lynx, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is The Desert Dance.

Nes Blando is ranked 17,077^th in the world and 53^rd in The Funian Puppet Region for Most Patriotic, with 55.66 flags saluted per person per day.
