Overview • Policies • People • Government • Economy • Rank • Trend • Cards

The Colony of Bless33 is a titanic, socially progressive nation, notable for its compulsory military service and irreverence towards religion. The democratic population of 14.758 billion Bless33ians hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Education, and Defense. The average income tax rate is 14.4%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The large but inefficient Bless33ian economy, worth 596 trillion Citas a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Basket Weaving industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Retail, and Uranium Mining. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 40,410 Citas, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.1 times as much as the poorest.

Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Bless33's national animal is the Vippertooth Dragon.

Bless33 is ranked 229,418^th in the world and 1^st in Bless for Largest Publishing Industry, scoring -2.37 on the Bella Potter Productivity e-Index.
