“I am weak, small, of no consequence to the universe.”

The Sementes of Pevides is a mammoth, safe nation, ruled by Comité Semental with an even hand, and renowned for its avant-garde cinema, frequent executions, and zero percent divorce rate. The hard-nosed, devout population of 9.964 billion Pevideses are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.

The large, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Law & Order. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 84.8%.

The frighteningly efficient Pevidesian economy, worth a remarkable 1,268 trillion Pevides a year, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Woodchip Exports, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Black market activity is frequent. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 127,284 Pevides, with the richest citizens earning 7.7 times as much as the poorest.

Burning yourself alive is not okay but starving and whipping yourself is fine, teachers are dying as they attempt to read 500 word essays without pausing for breath, the nation's skies are now a wasteland, and the government seeks peaceful forum with terrorists. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Pevides's national animal is the Melon, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Pevides is ranked 51,041^st in the world and 3^rd in Portugal de Esquerda for Largest Arms Manufacturing Sector, scoring 14,305.94 on the Charon Conveyancy Index.
