The Blue Rose Empire of Blazefire2 is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by Blaze of Cyn with an iron fist, and remarkable for its ritual sacrifices, parental licensing program, and public floggings. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless, devout population of 3.524 billion Blazefire2ians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of The Blue Fire Center TBFC. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 88.9%.

The frighteningly efficient Blazefire2ian economy, worth a remarkable 1,072 trillion Gold pills a year, is fairly diversified and mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Tourism, and Book Publishing. Average income is an amazing 304,315 Gold pills, but there is an enormous disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 1,633,925 per year while the poor average 29,573, a ratio of 55.2 to 1.

The numbers on the latest spending report are reaching stellar levels, ethnic minorities are often refused admission to some of the nation's best schools, the new one Gold pills coin also makes a handy throwing-star, and the armed forces are locked in an expensive and bloody war abroad to stamp out possible terrorists. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Blazefire2's national animal is the The Red Rhark, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is The Bless old ones.

Blazefire2 is ranked 90,155th in the world and 4,966th in Balder for Largest Trout Fishing Sector, scoring 3,253.51 on the Nemo Depletion Efficiency Index.
