The Sovereign Empire of Blaiwana is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by Emperor Ilya Rei Princeps Rublicae with an iron fist, and renowned for its soft-spoken computers, pith helmet sales, and parental licensing program. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 2.199 billion Blaiwanians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The enormous, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, with Law & Order, Administration, and Healthcare also on the agenda. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Auctoritas. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 75.0%.

The thriving Blaiwanan economy, worth 214 trillion Baics a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a large, well-organized black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Trout Farming, and Uranium Mining. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is 97,559 Baics, with the richest citizens earning 8.1 times as much as the poorest.

Glassy-eyed Blaiwanan wives lifelessly chant "I love you" on command, golden statues of Gilded-Winged Eagles line the memorial avenues of the Funerary District, anti-vaxxers claim that injected children are prone to psychotic breaks when they see the 'Queen of Diamonds' playing card, and the studies of art and philosophy are banned. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Blaiwana's national animal is the Gilded-Winged Eagle, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Empiric Worship.

Blaiwana is ranked 169,704th in the world and 7,127th in Lazarus for Largest Populations, with 2.20 billion capita.
