The Bagunçada Total e Completa of Peterandia is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by Shogun Pedro with an even hand, and remarkable for its smutty television, pith helmet sales, and unlimited-speed roads. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cheerful population of 34.4 billion Peterandians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The tiny, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Education, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of somewhere over the rainbow. Income tax is unheard of.

The frighteningly efficient Peterandian economy, worth an astonishing 17,912 trillion pau sterlings a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Retail, and Book Publishing. Average income is a breathtaking 520,705 pau sterlings, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.2 times as much as the poorest.

Innocent defendants often plead guilty for fear of receiving a much harsher sentence before jury, prisoners regularly escape detention posing as scarecrows, Widow Twankey complains about being "cancelled", and snitches get riches. Crime is totally unknown. Peterandia's national animal is the gambuzino, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Church of the Blazing Sun.

Peterandia is ranked 293,002^nd in the world and 162^nd in Portugal for Most Primitive, scoring -1342.21 on the Scary Big Number Scale.
