The Gremlin Citadel of BlackLight Covenant is a titanic, efficient nation, ruled by Trenchmaster Vazarrah with an even hand, and notable for its soft-spoken computers, frequent executions, and multi-spousal wedding ceremonies. The hard-nosed, humorless population of 22.609 billion BlackLight Covenantians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The medium-sized, corrupt government prioritizes Defense, although Education, Healthcare, and Administration are also considered important, while Spirituality and International Aid receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Terbarlynton. The average income tax rate is 98.3%.

The frighteningly efficient BlackLight Covenantian economy, worth a remarkable 5,613 trillion Retals a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Tourism, and Book Publishing. Average income is an amazing 248,281 Retals, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Greased palms have made Trenchmaster Vazarrah's office smell like gravy, all facts are created equal, the numbers on the latest spending report are reaching stellar levels, and the black market offers sweet deals. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. BlackLight Covenant's national animal is the Giant Moth, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Unknown.

BlackLight Covenant is ranked 5,866th in the world and 12th in The Glorious Nations of Iwaku for Safest, scoring 126.45 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
