The Borderlands of Yversy is a gargantuan, safe nation, renowned for its ban on automobiles, enforced nudity, and stringent health and safety legislation. The quiet, industrious population of 22.492 billion Yversyians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Public Transport, and Environment. The average income tax rate is 35.4%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The large but underdeveloped Yversyian economy, worth 469 trillion Euros a year, is quite specialized and led by the Book Publishing industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Trout Farming, and Woodchip Exports. Black market activity is frequent. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 20,855 Euros, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Public nudity is compulsory, euthanasia is legal, the latest Harry Potter book is a bestseller, and a large-scale revitalization of the education system is underway. Crime is well under control, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Yversy's national animal is the parrot, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Yversy is ranked 120,485^th in the world and 60^th in Anarchy for Most Advanced Public Education, scoring 1,612.08 on the Edu-tellignce® Test Score.
