The Holy Empire of Peatro is a large, orderly nation, remarkable for its compulsory military service, irreverence towards religion, and stringent health and safety legislation. The cynical population of 142 million Peatroans are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The large, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Administration, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 53.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The Peatroan economy, worth 8.09 trillion Peatrons a year, is quite specialized and led by the Trout Farming industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology and Beef-Based Agriculture. Average income is 56,966 Peatrons, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.1 times as much as the poorest.

The government is using tax revenues to provide jobs for the poor, farting etiquette is taught in schools, Peatro is renowned for its lax gun laws, and the education system has gotten a recent boost in spending. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Peatro's national animal is the HoneyBadger, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Peatro is ranked 317,095^th in the world and 36^th in HVMUN for Largest Black Market, with 4.00 billion Standard Monetary Units.
