The Corrupt States of Yokciq Empire is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Yokciq with an iron fist, and notable for its infamous sell-swords, frequent executions, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless population of 18.846 billion Yokciq Empireans are proud of their wide-ranging civil freedoms, and those who aren't tend to be dragged off the streets by men in dark suits and hustled into cars with tinted windows.

The relatively small, corrupt, liberal government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Education, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Yokciq City. The average income tax rate is 73.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Yokciq Empirean economy, worth a remarkable 6,599 trillion Gold Coins a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Arms Manufacturing, and Book Publishing. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an amazing 350,166 Gold Coins, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The government is pouring money into 'Operation Enduring Democracy', citizens receive notices of disenfranchisement along with their parking tickets, politicians have to be granted day-release from prison to speak on bills, and citizens spend millions on microtransactions to feed virtual orphans while actual orphans starve overseas. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Yokciq Empire's national animal is the Godeater Rat, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Yokciq Empire is ranked 7,765th in the world and 353rd in The North Pacific for Lowest Crime Rates, with 106.36 law-abiding acts per hour.
