The Republic of Yclept is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, notable for its enforced nudity. The hard-nosed population of 23.965 billion Ycleptians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Law & Order, and Defense. The average income tax rate is 38.0%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The Ycleptian economy, worth 959 trillion Nomens a year, is quite specialized and led by the Cheese Exports industry, with major contributions from Retail, Trout Farming, and Book Publishing. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 40,035 Nomens, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.5 times as much as the poorest.

Punitive tariffs protect local industry and public nudity is compulsory. Crime is well under control, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Yclept's national animal is the Smerdster, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Yclept is ranked 178,154^th in the world and 10^th in Valhalla for Lowest Crime Rates, with 58.59 law-abiding acts per hour.
