The Soft Drink of Pepsi is a colossal, socially progressive nation, ruled by Caleb Bradham with a fair hand, and notable for its absence of drug laws. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic population of 6.172 billion Pepsians live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.

The relatively small, liberal, pro-business government juggles the competing demands of Education, Industry, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Purchase. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 12.2%.

The powerhouse Pepsian economy, worth 532 trillion dollars a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Retail, Book Publishing, and Information Technology. Average income is 86,276 dollars, with the richest citizens earning 9.5 times as much as the poorest.

Cutting-edge missile systems are being retrofitted to twin-prop air force biplanes, artificial intelligences seeking exciting work are overcome with ennui, teenagers are told they're not thinking about sex enough, and televangelists flaunt their expensive cars when they attend charity events. Crime, especially youth-related, is almost non-existent. Pepsi's national animal is the eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Violetism.

Pepsi is ranked 134,451^st in the world and 1^st in Soda Pop for Most Advanced Defense Forces, scoring 1,727.6 on the Total War Preparedness Rating.
