The Community of YoKuDiva is a very large, environmentally stunning nation, renowned for its punitive income tax rates, restrictive gun laws, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic, devout population of 127 million YoKuDivans love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.
The large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Spirituality, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 66.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The sizeable but stagnant YoKuDivan economy, worth 2.34 trillion spirit tokens 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 Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Woodchip Exports, Information Technology, and Automobile Manufacturing. Average income is 18,391 spirit tokens, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Landless farmers wander forlornly in the government's many national parks, the YoKuDivan delegation to the World Assembly is having a hard time convincing people that international law will "pay for itself somehow...", satellite images show safe electoral constituencies in complete darkness, and parents dread their examinations more than their children. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. YoKuDiva's national animal is the butterfly, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.
YoKuDiva is ranked 239,111th in the world and 214th in Refugia for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring -5.06 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
