The Holy Delegate-State of Poderosaterra is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Hierophant II with an iron fist, and notable for its free-roaming dinosaurs, keen interest in outer space, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 3.491 billion Poderosaterrans are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

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 Xeniala. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 66.6%.

The frighteningly efficient Poderosaterran economy, worth 508 trillion Moeda Gordas a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Furniture Restoration, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 145,550 Moeda Gordas, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 445,983 per year while the poor average 36,769, a ratio of 12.1 to 1.

Hierophant II's webseries about the alleged hauntings of Xeniala generates millions of views, there is a growing belief that consciousness is a simulated illusion within a computer-generated reality, weekends are spent tilting at windmills, and viewers get headaches from trying to read the screen full of small print warnings that precede most TV shows. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Poderosaterra's national animal is the Bear, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Sapiens Ultrasupremism.

Poderosaterra is ranked 15,492^nd in the world and 5^th in Regionless for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 350.71 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
