Overview • People • Government • Economy • Trend • Analysis

The People's Republic of Llerrac Yar is a massive, genial nation, ruled by Pyotr Kropotkin with a fair hand, and remarkable for its anti-smoking policies. Its compassionate, hard-working, intelligent population of 4.21 billion hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent, liberal government stops and the rest of society begins, but it is mainly concerned with Education, although Social Welfare and the Environment are on the agenda. It meets every day to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Chez Guevara. The average income tax rate is 71%, and even higher for the wealthy. The private sector is almost wholly made up of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, although the government is looking at stamping this out.

People are now classified as male, female, or genderqueer, roads are often attended by round-the-clock construction crews, elevator music has been replaced by thrash metal played at maximum volume, and Llerrac Yar's children are widely acknowledged as the most foul-mouthed in the region. Crime is relatively low. Llerrac Yar's national animal is the Ginger Cat, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, its national religion is The Opium of the People, and its currency is the Engelmarx.

Llerrac Yar is ranked 4,722nd in The North Pacific and 110,151st in the world for Healthiest Citizens, with 0 Standard Bananas Ingested per capita per day.
