The Holy Empire of Yodle 2 is a titanic, genial nation, ruled by Emperor Wuff with an iron fist, and renowned for its infamous sell-swords, smutty television, and enslaved workforce. The compassionate, cynical, humorless, devout population of 10.978 billion Yodle 2ians are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Yodle City. The average income tax rate is 70.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Yodle 2ian economy, worth a remarkable 1,842 trillion Gold Coins a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a large, well-organized black market in Information Technology, Arms Manufacturing, Automobile Manufacturing, and Woodchip Exports. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an impressive 167,865 Gold Coins, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.1 times as much as the poorest.

The combined alert sound of a nation simultaneously receiving a text message is a common cause of hearing damage, music teachers are commonly seen busking in order to fund their music programs, murderers with law degrees can be seen swinging the gavel in courts, and space shuttles are lying silent on the runway till the Space Agency can work out how to fit a creche and a meditation room into their next spacecraft. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Yodle 2's national animal is the Cow, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Yodlism.

Yodle 2 is ranked 305,081st in the world and 49th in Disney World for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring -9.39 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
