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 notable for its frequent executions, free-roaming dinosaurs, and unlimited-speed roads. The hard-nosed, hard-working population of 2.879 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 Administration, Healthcare, and Industry are also considered important, while Spirituality and International Aid are ignored. The average income tax rate is 43.6%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient South Blossomian economy, worth 375 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 130,344 Bernie Bucks, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.0 times as much as the poorest.

Snap elections are called over every minor impasse, both diets and economic output are growing leaner with recent restrictions to free trade, recorded music can be rented but not bought from record companies, and preschools put children down for naps with milk, cookies, and a gruesome story of vengeance. 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 22,467^th in the world and 738^th in the South Pacific for Most Advanced Public Education, scoring 6,712.04 on the Edu-tellignce® Test Score.
