The Holy Empire of Blatherskites is a massive, efficient nation, notable for its absence of drug laws. The hard-working, democratic, devout population of 2.09 billion Blatherskitesians hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The tiny, liberal, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Spirituality, Welfare, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Ballyhoo. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 6.8%.

The very strong Blatherskitesian economy, worth 141 trillion Blathers a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Retail industry, with major contributions from Door-to-door Insurance Sales, Basket Weaving, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Average income is 67,857 Blathers, with the richest citizens earning 7.2 times as much as the poorest.

9 out of 10 consumers think that vitamins can cure cancer, Blatherskitesian doors require a Ph.D. to open, voting is compulsory, and the name of the "Butcher of Bigtopia" adorns shirts across Blatherskites. Crime, especially youth-related, is moderate, probably because of the absence of a police force. Blatherskites's national animal is the Sloth.

Blatherskites is ranked 68,595th in the world and 9th in Antisipation Refounded for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring 3,577.69 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
