The Most Serene Republic of Yeseul is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by Aliyah Iseul with an even hand, and renowned for its sprawling nuclear power plants, anti-smoking policies, and compulsory military service. The compassionate population of 3.317 billion Iseulians 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 Education, Administration, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Iseul City. The average income tax rate is 81.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Yeseulian economy, worth 374 trillion Pearls a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Basket Weaving. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 113,033 Pearls, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Employers are keenest on employees who lack family values, heavy industry must go to expensive lengths to dispose of waste, the arms industry is strictly regulated, and blind dates reemerge as a necessary evil in the quest for love. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Yeseul's national animal is the Black Swan, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Yeseul is ranked 141,424^th in the world and 251^st in Europeia for Largest Populations, with 3.32 billion capita.
