The relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 14.2%.

The Petrostatean economy, worth 281 trillion Delta Eagles a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Trout Farming, Book Publishing, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. Average income is 48,979 Delta Eagles, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.6 times as much as the poorest.

Crime is relatively low, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Petrostate's national animal is the Kitsune.

Petrostate is ranked 196,778^th in the world and 21^st in The Empires And Republics Of Power for Most Developed, scoring 52.71 on the Human Development Index.
