The Dominion of Yokoshida is a huge, orderly nation, notable for its multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, avant-garde cinema, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 676 million Yokoshidans 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 medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Albuquerque. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 41.7%.

The powerhouse Yokoshidan economy, worth 77.2 trillion Gutzes a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Beef-Based Agriculture, Retail, and Information Technology. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 114,144 Gutzes, with the richest citizens earning 5.7 times as much as the poorest.

A government program is underway to revitalize Yokoshida's beaches, engine room hooch is the drink of choice among the nation's navy, mysterious men apprehend suspected Good Samaritans under the cover of night, and new mothers can pay for their weekly grocery shop with a bottle of breast milk. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Yokoshida's national animal is the Dragon, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Yokoshida is ranked 87,925^th in the world and 45^th in The Order of the Grey Wardens for Largest Black Market, with 3.36 trillion Standard Monetary Units.
