The Himbo of Petea is a colossal, safe nation, ruled by Ariki Heikura with an iron fist, and remarkable for its keen interest in outer space, otherworldly petting zoo, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, hard-working, cynical, cheerful, devout population of 5.659 billion Pētea are proud of their wide-ranging civil freedoms, and those who aren't tend to be dragged off the streets by men in dark suits and hustled into cars with tinted windows.

The medium-sized, liberal government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Education, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Pūtaputapu. The average income tax rate is 74.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Pētea economy, worth 821 trillion Tāras a year, is quite specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Retail, and Book Publishing. Average income is an impressive 145,225 Tāras, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.4 times as much as the poorest.

Pētea must literally pay their respects to hear from their political representatives, airship use has soared while property values beneath their routes have plummeted, bar brawls are an hourly occurrence, and happiness is all being miserable together. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Petea's national animal is the Tropicbird, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Pētea Animism.

Petea is ranked 309,949th in the world and 5,060th in the South Pacific for Largest Furniture Restoration Industry, scoring -10.1 on the Spitz-Pollish Productivity Index.
