The Nineteen Monarchies of Yohannes is a colossal, economically powerful nation, ruled by Her Majesty Garnet til Alexandros with an even hand, and notable for its anti-smoking policies. Its hard-nosed, hard-working population of 6.411 billion have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Education, Commerce, and Social Welfare. It meets every day to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Ardenfontein. The average income tax rate is 21%. A powerhouse of a private sector is led by the Book Publishing, Automobile Manufacturing, and Woodchip Exports industries.

Lutheran Church of Yohannes has been named as Yohannes's national religion, the government is pouring funds into the nation's welfare system, the fire protection service is wholly government-funded, and the Fishmonger is reportedly extinct. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Yohannes's national animal is the Fishmonger, which is also the nation's favorite main course, its national religion is Lutheran Church of Yohannes, and its currency is the Quertz russling.

Yohannes is ranked 4,347th in the South Pacific and 126,297th in the world for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring -45 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
