The Multiversal Empire of PetzConfederation is a gargantuan, orderly nation, ruled by Supreme Petz Leader with an iron fist, and notable for its deadly medical pandemics, smutty television, and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless population of 21.226 billion Petz are ruled with an iron fist by the corrupt, dictatorship government, which oppresses anyone who isn't on the board of a Fortune 500 company. Large corporations tend to be above the law, and use their financial clout to gain ever-increasing government benefits at the expense of the poor and unemployed.

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 a remarkable 9,991 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 frequent. Average income is an amazing 470,707 Petz Marks, but there is an enormous disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 2,632,968 per year while the poor average 41,840, a ratio of 62.9 to 1.

Escaped birthday balloons are torpedoed out of the sky, serial killers share cells with serial jaywalkers, blind dates tend to result in bruised shins, and stranded mountaineers can watch livestreamed footage of their rescues. 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 1,474th in the world and 55th in Osiris for Lowest Crime Rates, with 156.29 law-abiding acts per hour.
