The Corrupt States of Yokciq Empire is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Yokciq with an iron fist, and remarkable for its keen interest in outer space, unlimited-speed roads, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless population of 18.979 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 74.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Yokciq Empirean economy, worth a remarkable 6,619 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 348,791 Gold Coins, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Politicians have to be granted day-release from prison to speak on bills, citizens spend millions on microtransactions to feed virtual orphans while actual orphans starve overseas, charity workers were first up against the wall when the time came, and forgetting to pay your annual passport bill is a leading cause of deportations. 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 285,002^nd in the world and 6,222^nd in The North Pacific for Most Patriotic, with 0.34 flags saluted per person per day.
