The Multiversal Empire of PetzConfederation is a gargantuan, orderly nation, ruled by Supreme Petz Leader with an iron fist, and renowned for its keen interest in outer space, smutty television, and suspicion of poets. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless population of 26.413 billion Petz 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 relatively small, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Petzepolis. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 4.9%.

The frighteningly efficient Petz economy, worth an astonishing 12,469 trillion Petz Marks a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Retail, and Uranium Mining. Black market activity is extensive. Average income is an amazing 472,094 Petz Marks, but there is an enormous disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 2,601,576 per year while the poor average 43,373, a ratio of 60.0 to 1.

Supreme Petz Leader's reputation is hard as nails, the inchworm that measured the marigolds is six feet under, all music has been banned, and pieces of iron pyrite are believed to be worth their weight in gold. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. PetzConfederation's national animal is the Chicken, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

PetzConfederation is ranked 11,881^st in the world and 481^st in Balder for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring 8,252.06 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
