The Principality of Yakutat is a massive, devout nation, notable for its strong anti-business politics. Its hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 4.513 billion are rabid consumers, partly through choice and partly because the government tells them to and dissenters tend to vanish from their homes at night.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Religion & Spirituality, and Defence. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 19%. Private enterprise is illegal, but for those in the know there is a slick and highly efficient black market in Automobile Manufacturing.

The government has adopted a more thrifty attitude to administrating the country's needs, Harry Potter books are banned, citizens drive tank-like vehicles with mounted machine guns, and corporations cut costs by taking away safety-features on their products. Crime is a serious problem. Yakutat's national animal is the eagle, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its currency is the nuggets.

Yakutat is ranked 9th in Alaska and 115,754th in the world for Most Income Equality, scoring 44 on the Marx-Engels Emancipation Scale.
