The Free Land of Pedigree is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, notable for its compulsory military service, irreverence towards religion, and stringent health and safety legislation. The quiet, industrious population of 1.352 billion Pedigreeans are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Welfare. The average income tax rate is 30.1%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The Pedigreean economy, worth 73.1 trillion Russian Rubles a year, is broadly diversified and dominated by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Uranium Mining, Door-to-door Insurance Sales, and Arms Manufacturing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 54,055 Russian Rubles, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The government raises tariffs on a weekly basis, the nation sends criminals home to think about what they did, Maxtopian tourists make expensive pilgrimages to Pedigree City to enjoy their national art, and one-man canoes fitted with the latest tracking technology leave no room for one man. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Pedigree's national animal is the Eurasian brown bear, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Pedigree is ranked 54,554^th in the world and 19^th in Adaven for Safest, scoring 101.63 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
