The Yoke of Serious Problems is a gargantuan, safe nation, ruled by Jurgen das Kiint with a fair hand, and notable for its anti-smoking policies, hatred of cheese, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic population of 44.941 billion Serious Problemsians enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Education, Environment, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 95.0%.

The thriving Serious Problemsian economy, worth a remarkable 3,870 trillion Bullions a year, is driven almost entirely by government activity. The industrial sector is solely comprised of the Book Publishing industry. Average income is 86,119 Bullions, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Procrastination is a national sport, the government has adopted a more thrifty attitude to administrating the country's needs, Jurgen das Kiint has just been declared ruler of Serious Problems in an international press conference, and civil servants spend most their time carrying out risk assessments for paper cuts. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Serious Problems's national animal is the virus, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Serious Problems is ranked 8,672nd in the world and 202nd in the Rejected Realms for Most Cultured, scoring 126 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
