The Dictatorship of Southern Yoneeka is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by Harry Yon with an iron fist, and renowned for its ritual sacrifices, compulsory military service, and pith helmet sales. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless population of 2.588 billion Yoneekans are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Mr Happy's Funland. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 40.3%.

The powerhouse Yoneekan economy, worth 204 trillion Yons a year, is dominated by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Uranium Mining, Woodchip Exports, and Trout Farming. Black market activity is extensive. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 79,086 Yons, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 310,089 per year while the poor average 13,722, a ratio of 22.6 to 1.

Soldiers are "encouraged" to advance by armed officers behind them, the state believes that children are what you make of them, there is a growing belief that consciousness is a simulated illusion within a computer-generated reality, and Bigtopian relations have become a minefield. Crime is moderate, possibly because it is difficult to make it through a day without breaking one of the country's many regulations. Southern Yoneeka's national animal is the Walrus, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to heavy metals seepage into national waterways, and its national religion is Yonism.

Southern Yoneeka is ranked 152,481st in the world and 5,859th in Balder for Largest Automobile Manufacturing Sector, scoring 705.79 on the Henry Ford Productivity Index.
