The Confederacy of PeterThiel is a very large, efficient nation, renowned for its flagrant waste-dumping, absence of drug laws, and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-nosed, hard-working population of 272 million PeterThielians are either ruled by a sleek, efficient government or a conglomerate of multinational corporations; it's difficult to tell which.

The tiny, corrupt, pro-business government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Defense, and Law & Order. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 4.2%.

The frighteningly efficient PeterThielian economy, worth 32.7 trillion dollars 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 Gambling, Retail, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is an impressive 120,048 dollars, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 1,085,289 per year while the poor average 1,592, a ratio of 681 to 1.

Employers may fire workers without giving any reason, police reduce their paperwork by refusing to arrest anyone, country folk are sent to obligatory boarding schools to learn how to be civilized, and government officials are phoning up good-looking celebrities to say they want to breed with them. Crime, especially youth-related, is a major problem, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. PeterThiel's national animal is the poor, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

PeterThiel is ranked 309,573rd in the world and 6th in Bormla for Highest Poor Incomes, with 1,592.84 Standard Monetary Units.
