The Confederación of Petrolero is a mammoth, genial nation, notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape and irreverence towards religion. The hard-working, democratic population of 5.018 billion Petrolera enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The tiny, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Education, and Healthcare. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 8.8%.

The strong Petrolera economy, worth 303 trillion floríns a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Door-to-door Insurance Sales industry, with major contributions from Cheese Exports, Pizza Delivery, and Uranium Mining. Average income is 60,550 floríns, with the richest citizens earning 7.5 times as much as the poorest.

All major public areas are watched by police surveillance cameras, the government awards prizes to television shows featuring stereotype-breaking minority roles, graverobbers claim they're acting within the interest of 'scientific preservation', and relations with Dàguó have warmed from frosty to chilly. Crime is relatively low. Petrolero's national animal is the cocodrilo, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

Petrolero is ranked 136,733^rd in the world and 10^th in Corvinian Spanish Zone for Largest Populations, with 5.02 billion capita.
