The Holy Empire of Los Pedrios is a massive, safe nation, notable for its smutty television, frequent executions, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 2.969 billion Los Pedriosians are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

The enormous, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Administration, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Neotropolis. The average income tax rate is 85.3%.

The frighteningly efficient Los Pedriosian economy, worth 287 trillion Pedro Dollars a year, is quite specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Arms Manufacturing, and Automobile Manufacturing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 96,962 Pedro Dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.2 times as much as the poorest.

A surprising number of police officers have been arrested for Pedrian Eagle sacrifices, notable individuals are granted land and titles, news headlines usually include p-values, and Leader's new android secretary is the latest media darling. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Los Pedrios's national animal is the Pedrian Eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Technospiritism.

Los Pedrios is ranked 261,917^th in the world and 9,213^th in Lazarus for Most Primitive, scoring -195.87 on the Scary Big Number Scale.
