The People's Republic of of Yangtu is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Wang An with an even hand, and notable for its frequent executions, sprawling nuclear power plants, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic population of 3.672 billion YangTuens are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Sunshine Harbor. The average income tax rate is 84.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The powerhouse Yangtuan economy, worth 331 trillion Pengs 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 Tourism industry, with major contributions from Trout Farming, Book Publishing, and Woodchip Exports. Average income is 90,153 Pengs, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

For the sake of 'public interest' news programs tell viewers how to home-make Sarin gas bombs, consumption of cat memes has skyrocketed, kindergartners' favourite dance move is the stop-drop-and-roll, and skateparks can be found in every city. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Yangtu's national animal is the loong, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Dialectical materialism.

Yangtu is ranked 280,264^th in the world and 1,026^th in The Communist Bloc for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring -12.31 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
