The Rogue Nation of Fat Yoshi is a mammoth, socially progressive nation, remarkable for its absence of drug laws. The hard-working, democratic population of 5.2 billion Fat Yoshians hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The relatively small, liberal, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Education, and Administration. The average income tax rate is 9.9%.

The Fat Yoshian economy, worth 278 trillion gold coins a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Pizza Delivery industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Retail, and Tourism. Average income is 53,621 gold coins, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.5 times as much as the poorest.

The nation was recently voted as the most stylish in Astrid, cassocked priests and choirboys believe that what happens behind closed doors stays behind closed doors, heavy industry must go to expensive lengths to dispose of waste, and dozens of viewers go online to hear whether a comma has been added to Clause 5 in Subsection B of Law 58375. Crime is moderate, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Fat Yoshi's national animal is the dinosaur, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Fat Yoshi is ranked 154,893^rd in the world and 4^th in Astrid for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring 888.97 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
