The Reddened Cheeks of Blushing is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, notable for its frequent executions, irreverence towards religion, and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-working, democratic population of 10.889 billion Blushingians are either ruled by a sleek, efficient government or a conglomerate of multinational corporations; it's difficult to tell which.

The relatively small, pro-business government juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Defense, and Law & Order. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 14.3%.

The very strong Blushingian economy, worth 481 trillion wefwefwefs a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Book Publishing, and Basket Weaving. Average income is 44,204 wefwefwefs, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 137,868 per year while the poor average 10,886, a ratio of 12.7 to 1.

It's considered a civil right to be allowed to neglect and mistreat your own children, the experimental sculpture "Overtures In Dried Wefwefwe Dung" has been declared a national treasure, internet sites are legally unable to stop their users from posting pornography, and the sick and dying are locked in their homes with a red "X" painted on the front door. Crime is a problem. Blushing's national animal is the wefwefwe, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Blushing is ranked 52,028th in the world and 10th in 555 for Largest Publishing Industry, scoring 5,332.59 on the Bella Potter Productivity e-Index.
