The Holy Blue Republic of Ya-Matha is a titanic, genial nation, ruled by Emperor Wuff with an iron fist, and notable for its zero percent divorce rate, disturbing lack of elderly people, and suspicion of poets. The compassionate, cynical, devout population of 11.419 billion Ya-Mathans are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The large, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Yodle City. The average income tax rate is 58.9%.

The very strong Ya-Mathan economy, worth 779 trillion Gold Coins a year, is quite specialized and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Trout Farming, and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 68,235 Gold Coins, with the richest citizens earning 5.2 times as much as the poorest.

The nation's navy has been named the scourge of the seven thousand seas, the military invades any neighboring nation with the gall to criticize its policies, shops were recently ransacked as cigarettes returned to the shelves, and the first sword of Ya-Matha does not run. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Ya-Matha's national animal is the Cow, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Yodlism.

Ya-Matha is ranked 70,768th in the world and 17th in Disney World for Largest Publishing Industry, scoring 4,339.38 on the Bella Potter Productivity e-Index.
