The Grand Duchy of Peossons is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by Premier Steven Marshall with an iron fist, and renowned for its barren, inhospitable landscape, compulsory military service, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 4.474 billion Peossonsians 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, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Bundaberg. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 10.9%.

The very strong Peossonsian economy, worth 312 trillion Dollars a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Retail, Gambling, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Average income is 69,833 Dollars, with the richest citizens earning 6.3 times as much as the poorest.

It's widely agreed that to tennis players love means nothing, commemorative mugs remembering last year's Black Friday Crockery Riots are a best seller this year, fewer people are bathing as citizens must show ration stamps before they can turn on their faucets, and advertisements read like science journal articles complete with extensive references. Crime, especially youth-related, is relatively low, thanks to a capable police force. Peossons's national animal is the leopard, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Peossons is ranked 112,365^th in the world and 482^nd in the Plains of Perdition for Most Extreme, scoring 22.04 on the Paul-Nader Subjective Decentrality Index.
