The Empire of Yeraaaa is a huge, socially progressive nation, remarkable for its national health service and stringent health and safety legislation. The cynical, devout population of 653 million Yeraaaans are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

The large, socially-minded, well-organized government prioritizes Healthcare, with Spirituality, Education, and Defense also on the agenda. The average income tax rate is 49.6%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but sluggish Yeraaaan economy, worth 16.4 trillion dollars a year, is led by the Uranium Mining industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Gambling, and Basket Weaving. Black market activity is frequent. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 25,163 dollars , and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Citizens who leave the nation for work are instantly charged with treason, Leader sports gold-plated grillz to promote the government's hard money policy, in distant lands the nation is known as a lovely place that was even better in the good old days, and prisoners pray grey skies are gonna clear up. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Yeraaaa's national animal is the dolphin, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.

Yeraaaa is ranked 149,607th in the world and 17th in Adaven for Most Subsidized Industry, scoring 584.32 on the Gilded Widget Scale.
