The Sub-optimally Aligned Nation of Yriae is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by Ferguson Springoff with an even hand, and remarkable for its infamous sell-swords, punitive income tax rates, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, devout population of 1.153 billion Yrieggites are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.
The large government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Welfare, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Querome. The average income tax rate is 70.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The all-consuming Yriaean economy, worth 111 trillion phlegmes a year, is quite specialized and led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Information Technology, and Furniture Restoration. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 96,275 phlegmes, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Failed genetic experiments wreak havoc as they roam the countryside, monocled merchants with funny accents are applying for Yriaean citizenship in droves, picnickers are lucky if a few wasps are the only animals that trouble them, and the temple hierarchy have found that endorsements are even more lucrative than indulgences. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Yriae's national animal is the horseshit beetle, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Accidentalism.
Yriae is ranked 290,652nd in the world and 5,582nd in The North Pacific for Highest Workforce Participation Rate, with 46.2 Workforce Participation Rate.
