The Hijo de Iuno of Barredo is a mammoth, safe nation, ruled by President Justyn White with an iron fist, and remarkable for its ubiquitous missile silos, zero percent divorce rate, and anti-smoking policies. The hard-nosed, cynical, devout population of 7.303 billion Barredoans 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, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Administration, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Estela. The average income tax rate is 70.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Barredoan economy, worth 888 trillion Doblas a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, and Furniture Restoration. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 121,667 Doblas, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

It's illegal to be caught on tape, political visitors are forced to stop ten paces from President Justyn White's throne, murderers frequently escape punishment by claiming they were protecting their honour, and corporations cut costs by taking away safety-features on their products. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Barredo's national animal is the Barredoan Condor, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Christianity.

Barredo is ranked 145,057th in the world and 20th in RGBN for Largest Pizza Delivery Sector, scoring 945.4 on the Pepperoni Propulsion Productivity Index.
