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

The Kingdom of South Blossom is a massive, safe nation, ruled by Supreme Leader Mateus with an even hand, and remarkable for its museums and concert halls, unlimited-speed roads, and devotion to social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working population of 3.348 billion South Blossomians 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 medium-sized, corrupt government prioritizes Education, although Healthcare, Administration, and Industry are also considered important, while Spirituality and International Aid receive no funds. The average income tax rate is 47.1%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient South Blossomian economy, worth 426 trillion Bernie Bucks a year, is dominated by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Retail, and Book Publishing. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 127,433 Bernie Bucks, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Voters must frequently select what they view as the lesser of two evils on the ballot, party leaders rely on horoscopes to create "ticket balance", the government has adopted a "Lightning Never Strikes Twice" approach to dealing with natural disasters, and the general public only knows their favorite politician's first name. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. South Blossom's national animal is the Unicorn, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

South Blossom is ranked 194,101^st in the world and 6,838^th in the South Pacific for Fattest Citizens, with 8.29 Obesity Rate.
