The Allied States of Yorupan is a massive, genial nation, ruled by Yoru Kiritani with an even hand, and remarkable for its multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, irreverence towards religion, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, democratic population of 1.404 billion Yorupanians enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked, socially-minded morass — juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Kiritani City. The average income tax rate is 76.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The Yorupanian economy, worth 66.6 trillion Yoruens a year, is highly specialized and mostly made up of the Trout Farming industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 47,440 Yoruens, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Political dissidents are cut off from essential services, the government has strong opinions about what goes into your bodily orifices, even the most lowly council pen-pusher has the same political power as a senior minister, and the government has declined to declare any particular religion as its 'official' one. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Yorupan's national animal is the Oni-wolf, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Yorupan is ranked 28,952^nd in the world and 220^th in The Leftist Assembly for Safest, scoring 109.5 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
