The Republic of Yyx130 is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, renowned for its free-roaming dinosaurs, daily referendums, and ritual sacrifices. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 6.618 billion Yyx130ians 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 Law & Order, Defense, and Administration. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 66.2%.
The frighteningly efficient Yyx130ian economy, worth a remarkable 1,031 trillion rupees a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Woodchip Exports, and Furniture Restoration. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 155,796 rupees, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 625,368 per year while the poor average 26,009, a ratio of 24.0 to 1.
Seven-year-olds debate for weeks on the merits of the Oxford comma, the nation's ambassadors often conduct their business in jail cells, recreational drug businesses are regularly pruned if they grow above the maximum legal size, and only 'organics' are permitted to be citizens. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Yyx130's national animal is the porpoise, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.
Yyx130 is ranked 39,618th in the world and 125th in YYX for Most Subsidized Industry, scoring 4,714.84 on the Gilded Widget Scale.
