The Yemen Arab Republic of Mutawakkiliti is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, notable for its compulsory military service, irreverence towards religion, and stringent health and safety legislation. The cynical population of 1.429 billion Yemenis are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The enormous, moralistic, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Law & Order, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Sanaa. The average income tax rate is 63.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The Mutawakkilitian economy, worth 60.3 trillion North Yemeni rials a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Arms Manufacturing, and Furniture Restoration. Average income is 42,204 North Yemeni rials, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

International television adverts praise the nation as a worker's paradise, Merry Birthday is a popular protest song despite the risk of fines and royalty dues, maximum security fish farms leave caged salmon pining for the fjords, and the average commuter spends four hours a day driving to and from work. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Mutawakkiliti's national animal is the Eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Mutawakkiliti is ranked 146,495^th in the world and 155^th in Commonwealth of Liberty for Largest Cheese Export Sector, scoring 1,285.73 on the Mozzarella Productivity Index.
