The Federal Republic of Blueven is a massive, efficient nation, renowned for its irreverence towards religion, punitive income tax rates, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic population of 1.602 billion Bluevenians 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 large government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Las Cruz. The average income tax rate is 68.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Bluevenian economy, worth 173 trillion Besoes a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Retail, and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 108,097 Besoes, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Blueven has one of the largest offshore wind farms in the world, several citizens have complained about scientists abducting their pets for experimentation, the Twelve Steps To Logging Off is the most popular mobile download, and foreign workers are flooding in as Besoes flood out. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Blueven's national animal is the Raven, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Blueven is ranked 45,321^st in the world and 30^th in Alcris for Safest, scoring 104.14 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
