The United Tribes of Petea is a massive, orderly nation, ruled by Ariki Heikura with an iron fist, and renowned for its museums and concert halls, punitive income tax rates, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, hard-working, cynical, devout population of 4.218 billion Pētea are proud of their wide-ranging civil freedoms, and those who aren't tend to be dragged off the streets by men in dark suits and hustled into cars with tinted windows.

The medium-sized, liberal, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Industry, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Pūtaputapu. The average income tax rate is 73.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Pētea economy, worth 586 trillion Tāras a year, is quite specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Retail, and Book Publishing. Average income is an impressive 138,936 Tāras, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.1 times as much as the poorest.

Jaywalkers are condemned to lives of poverty for their heinous crimes, Petea's Medieval Faire is renowned as one of the best in the region, homophobia is off the menu, and 'A is for Annulment' is a popular children's song. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Petea's national animal is the Tropicbird, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Pētea Animism.

Petea is ranked 71,221st in the world and 732nd in the South Pacific for Most Stationary, with 669.1779050592 days.
