The Community of Yiale is a mid-sized, environmentally stunning nation, renowned for its rum-swilling pirates, frequent executions, and absence of drug laws. The compassionate, democratic population of 83 million Yialeites have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Welfare. The average income tax rate is 30.6%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The Yialean economy, worth 4.11 trillion dollars a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Beef-Based Agriculture industry, with significant contributions from Soda Sales, Trout Farming, and Automobile Manufacturing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 49,552 dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.2 times as much as the poorest.

Citizens are barcoded to keep track of their movements, corporations cut costs by taking away safety-features on their products, all recreational drugs are legal, and an increasing percentage of the population's youth have homosexual parents. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Yiale's national animal is the parrot, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Yiale is ranked 170,086^th in the world and 581^st in The Frontier Sea for Highest Average Incomes, with 49,552.3 Standard Monetary Units.
