The Blue of Filibustra is a colossal, socially progressive nation, ruled by Lucas the Fourth with an even hand, and remarkable for its rum-swilling pirates, public floggings, and avowedly heterosexual populace. The hard-nosed, humorless population of 5.357 billion Filibustrians 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 relatively small, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Defense, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Obstructa. The average income tax rate is 35.7%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Filian economy, worth a remarkable 1,320 trillion Ekspis a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Arms Manufacturing, and Retail. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 246,474 Ekspis, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

A large-scale revitalization of the education system is underway, petitioners are increasingly resorting to climbing through Lucas the Fourth's window to draw attention to their issues, exorbitant spending on icebreakers breaks the ice at every budget meeting, and Thomas the Spank Engine is the most popular and controversial children's show in the nation. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Filibustra's national animal is the Cat, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Atheism.

Filibustra is ranked 83,186th in the world and 1,680th in The North Pacific for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring 2,618.27 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
