“I'm craaaaaaaaazy”

Overview • Policies • People • Government • Economy • Rank • Trend • Cards

The Empire of Yngir is a gargantuan, orderly nation, notable for its sprawling nuclear power plants, aversion to nipples, and avowedly heterosexual populace. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless population of 11.682 billion Yngirians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The relatively small, corrupt, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, although Law & Order, Industry, and Education are also considered important, while Welfare and Social Policy are ignored. The average income tax rate is 92.4%.

The frighteningly efficient Yngirian economy, worth a remarkable 6,881 trillion Pancreas a year, is broadly diversified and mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Retail, and Uranium Mining. Average income is a breathtaking 589,064 Pancreas, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.2 times as much as the poorest.

Mountain rescuers refer to their new gear as the 'watchamacallits' and 'thingymabobs', drill sergeants yell in the ears of bespectacled nerds in cybermilitary "reboot camps", emigrants arrive on foreign shores with nothing but pocket sand, and the Ministry of Truthiness now manages the entire media industry. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Yngir's national animal is the Wizard, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Yngir is ranked 1,791^st in the world and 49^th in the Pacific for Lowest Crime Rates, with 149.11 law-abiding acts per hour.
