The Guard of Yes-men is a massive, safe nation, remarkable for its state-planned economy, compulsory military service, and devotion to social welfare. The democratic, devout population of 1.78 billion yes-men are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Spirituality, and Education. The average income tax rate is 55.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but underdeveloped yes-man economy, worth 59.5 trillion yeses a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is fairly diversified, is led by the Woodchip Exports industry, with major contributions from Pizza Delivery, Book Publishing, and Furniture Restoration. Average income is 33,445 yeses, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

TV shows must meet strict ethnicity quotas, organ donation is compulsory, a large-scale revitalization of the education system is underway, and pollution is on the rise along with government approvals of fracking projects. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Yes-men's national animal is the yes, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

Yes-men is ranked 132,595^th in the world and 1,152^nd in Artificial Solar System for Most Subsidized Industry, scoring 774.35 on the Gilded Widget Scale.
