The People's Republic of De Yuan is a colossal, orderly nation, ruled by Xi Jingyi with an iron fist, and remarkable for its parental licensing program, rampant corporate plagiarism, and suspicion of poets. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 8.049 billion Yuanezes 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 large, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Shanghan. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 37.6%.

The very strong De Yuanian economy, worth 422 trillion Yen a year, is quite specialized and led by the Uranium Mining industry, with major contributions from Woodchip Exports, Arms Manufacturing, and Information Technology. Black market activity is frequent. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 52,444 Yen, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 193,307 per year while the poor average 10,045, a ratio of 19.2 to 1.

Hiding wrinkles with make-up is illegal, there is an abondance of ackawi and zartschmelzend in every De Yuanian grocery store, the government advises foreign diplomats to speak softly and carry a big bag of cash, and citizens hear a diversity of opinions from a range of billionaire-owned corporations. Crime, especially youth-related, is relatively low, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. De Yuan's national animal is the Panda, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities, and its national religion is Atheistic.

De Yuan is ranked 195,899^th in the world and 189^th in Coalition of Crown Albatross for Lowest Crime Rates, with 57.06 law-abiding acts per hour.
