The Most Serene Republic of Yeseul is a massive, cultured nation, ruled by Aliyah Iseul with an even hand, and notable for its free-roaming dinosaurs, multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate population of 4.567 billion Iseulians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Iseul City. The average income tax rate is 84.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Yeseulian economy, worth 509 trillion Pearls a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Cheese Exports. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 111,558 Pearls, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Ride-sharing often involves some passengers sitting on the roof rack, poaching has been on the rise after animals from the nation's zoos were released into the wild, many parents are becoming frustrated with their children's choices in spouses, and visiting the best Yeseulian restaurants requires keeping a visa on file. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Yeseul's national animal is the Black Swan, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Yeseul is ranked 132,947^th in the world and 563^rd in Europeia for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring 1,377.68 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
