The Multiversal Empire of PetzConfederation is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Supreme Petz Leader with an iron fist, and remarkable for its rum-swilling pirates, avowedly heterosexual populace, and smutty television. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless population of 22.803 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 4.8%.

The frighteningly efficient Petz economy, worth an astonishing 10,751 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 471,474 Petz Marks, but there is an enormous disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 2,615,393 per year while the poor average 42,690, a ratio of 61.3 to 1.

Creating dance remixes is the newest form of conspicuous consumption, AI chatbots generate grayscale images when asked for a picture of the truth, talkative students are escorted from schools in second-hand prison buses, and Supreme Petz Leader's reputation is hard as nails. 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 332,271^st in the world and 16,024^th in Balder for Most Cheerful Citizens, with 8.35 Percentage Of Water Glasses Perceived Half-Full.
