The Perfect Civilization of Perfe is a massive, orderly nation, ruled by The Perfect with an iron fist, and remarkable for its teetotalling pirates, barren, inhospitable landscape, and public floggings. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless population of 1.665 billion Perfeans are ruled with an iron fist by the corrupt, dictatorship government, which oppresses anyone who isn't on the board of a Fortune 500 company. Large corporations tend to be above the law, and use their financial clout to gain ever-increasing government benefits at the expense of the poor and unemployed.

The tiny, corrupt, pro-business, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Industry, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Las Perfe. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 9.5%.

The frighteningly efficient Perfean economy, worth 186 trillion Perfean Dollars a year, is led by the Gambling industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Retail, and Uranium Mining. Black market activity is frequent. Average income is an impressive 112,063 Perfean Dollars, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 976,174 per year while the poor average 2,007, a ratio of 486 to 1.

A proud mining community is considering a rebellion after the Capital officially renamed them 'District XII', exceptionally healthy police officers can sprint after crooks for hours on end, dog breeding has been banned in accordance with recent animal experimentation laws, and the government is telling wizards to put their heart into their work. Crime is all-pervasive, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Perfe's national animal is the Peerguay, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Perfectionism.

Perfe is ranked 65,656th in the world and 11th in The Guild of Generations for Largest Cheese Export Sector, scoring 3,912.26 on the Mozzarella Productivity Index.
