The Queen's State of Petryn is a gargantuan, pleasant nation, ruled by the Governor with an even hand, and renowned for its irreverence towards religion. The hard-working population of 16.85 billion Petrynians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Capital Heights. The average income tax rate is 21.4%.

The Petrynian economy, worth 681 trillion betales a year, is led by the Uranium Mining industry, with major contributions from Automobile Manufacturing, Book Publishing, and Trout Farming. Average income is 40,439 betales, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.6 times as much as the poorest.

Punitive tariffs protect local industry, Petryn has designated Capital Heights as its capital city, the government's official stance on religion is that it is so very silly, and The Governor has just been declared ruler of Petryn in an international press conference. Crime is relatively low, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Petryn's national animal is the deer, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

Petryn is ranked 149,302^nd in the world and 2^nd in The Six Counties of Ulster for Most Corrupt Governments, with 3.24 kickbacks per hour.
