The Peoples Empire of Yong is a gargantuan, safe nation, ruled by Empress Kari with an even hand, and remarkable for its otherworldly petting zoo, irreverence towards religion, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate population of 14 billion Yongians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.
The large, corrupt, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Law & Order, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Houfu. The average income tax rate is 97.9%.
The frighteningly efficient Yongian economy, worth a remarkable 2,680 trillion Yongian yen a year, is quite specialized and mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Tourism, and Trout Farming. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 191,429 Yongian yen, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Ice-filled coffins are ominously positioned in the corner of every hospital ward, political parties are banned from advertising and receiving private donations, this year's hottest fashion trend is the Lese Majeste collection, and Houfu's back alleys are rife with sausage eating. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Yong's national animal is the かわいい 猫, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Yumawa.
Yong is ranked 286,908th in the world and 10,984th in Osiris for Highest Disposable Incomes, with 4,020.01 Standard Monetary Units.
