The Empire of Peanu-Butteria is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by Emperor Karl von Zeitstadt-Enkelburg with an iron fist, and notable for its compulsory military service, pith helmet sales, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless population of 6.285 billion Peanu-Butterians are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The medium-sized, corrupt, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, although Education, Industry, and Administration are also considered important, while International Aid and Welfare receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Zeitstadt. The average income tax rate is 97.2%.

The frighteningly efficient Peanu-Butterian economy, worth a remarkable 2,438 trillion Imperial Colpeses a year, is broadly diversified and mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Information Technology, Arms Manufacturing, and Retail. Average income is an amazing 388,027 Imperial Colpeses, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.3 times as much as the poorest.

Medical staff can legally quiet people who ask for a second helping of Salisbury steak, mountain rescue missions can end with more people lost than found, chalkboards are replaced with billboards in the classroom, and the internal market is thriving. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Peanu-Butteria's national animal is the Eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Eglerism.

Peanu-Butteria is ranked 68,544^th in the world and 82^nd in Talonia for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring 3,452.79 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
