The Inexplicably Surviving Land of Peake is a titanic, cultured nation, ruled by Davey Christian with an even hand, and notable for its sprawling nuclear power plants, complete lack of prisons, and hatred of cheese. The compassionate population of 13.92 billion Peakeans enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked, liberal, socially-minded morass — juggles the competing demands of Education, Environment, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Mystopia. The average income tax rate is 98.9%.

The frighteningly efficient Peakean economy, worth a remarkable 2,233 trillion peamarks a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing and Beef-Based Agriculture. Average income is an impressive 160,434 peamarks, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Tax-payers are funding ever more extravagant movie projects, schools have extensive counseling programs for troubled students, the 'kind of scrawny' 500 meter hurdle is a popular event, and abortions are routinely performed in the nation's hospitals. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Peake's national animal is the bat, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Peake is ranked 3,706th in the world and 1st in Big History 2023 for Least Corrupt Governments, with 95.45 percentage of bribes refused.
