The People's Republic of Yaelonia is a very large, orderly nation, notable for its frequent executions, state-planned economy, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 113 million Yaelonians are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

The large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Law & Order, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 61.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but inefficient Yaelonian economy, worth 4.74 trillion Yaels a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is led by the Trout Farming industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Basket Weaving. Average income is 41,933 Yaels, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Glittering new sports stadiums adorn every city and town, the military recognizes no difference between male and female soldiers, internet searches for the inventor of the three-wheeled steam-powered Yaelonian weed picker are way up, and lines of trenches demarcate the nation's borders. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Yaelonia's national animal is the panther, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Yaelonia is ranked 254,798^th in the world and 364^th in The Leftist Assembly for Largest Populations, with 113 million capita.
