The Colony of Card Blender is a massive, orderly nation, renowned for its ubiquitous missile silos, keen interest in outer space, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 1.723 billion Card Blenderians 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 medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Administration. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 19.7%.

The strong Card Blenderian economy, worth 98.0 trillion bitcoins a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Retail, Automobile Manufacturing, and Information Technology. Average income is 56,859 bitcoins, but there is an enormous disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 331,279 per year while the poor average 4,603, a ratio of 72.0 to 1.

It turns out you can put a price on sporting integrity, hospitals have unveiled new guidelines suggesting that latex gloves do not count as clothing, sports club owners are having a moneyball, and beatboxing has replaced the 'Wilhelm scream' as the nation's most popular sound effect. Crime, especially youth-related, is well under control, thanks to a well-funded police force. Card Blender's national animal is the unicorn, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Card Blender is ranked 164,472^nd in the world and 3^rd in Card Destruction for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 69.28 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
