The Republic of SweetBlood is a huge, socially progressive nation, remarkable for its daily referendums, national health service, and irreverence towards religion. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic population of 261 million Sweedians enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The medium-sized, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Education, and Industry. The average income tax rate is 46.9%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming SweetBloodian economy, worth 23.7 trillion Fics a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Retail, Trout Farming, and Book Publishing. Average income is 90,687 Fics, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.3 times as much as the poorest.

Wildlife near farms is slowly becoming extinct, SweetBlood's children are widely acknowledged as the most foul-mouthed in the region, census workers struggle to account for the rapidly increasing number of citizens to tabulate, and multiple births are a cause of celebration for tax collectors. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. SweetBlood's national animal is the Rabbit, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

SweetBlood is ranked 273,752^nd in the world and 75^th in AP JHS for Most Authoritarian, with 234.05 milliStalins.
