The Republic of Heaven Blanket is a massive, efficient nation, remarkable for its deadly medical pandemics, soft-spoken computers, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, devout population of 1.037 billion ınnocents 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 government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Industry, and Education. The average income tax rate is 60.1%.

The all-consuming Heaven Blanketian economy, worth 118 trillion Hugs a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a large, well-organized, fairly diversified black market in Soda Sales, Gambling, Tourism, and Information Technology. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an impressive 114,355 Hugs, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.2 times as much as the poorest.

There's nothing more rock-and-roll than absolute sobriety, the government sends submarines to retrieve bodies from shipwrecked submarines, the nation's iron imports are booming, and workers of "fairweather faith" claim six months of paid leave for holy days per year. Crime, especially youth-related, is moderate, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Heaven Blanket's national animal is the Dove.

Heaven Blanket is ranked 58,891^st in the world and 639^th in the Pacific for Most Advanced Public Education, scoring 4,122.69 on the Edu-tellignce® Test Score.
