The Federal Republic of Yahlia is a colossal, safe nation, ruled by Kjeila Pentrăscu with a fair hand, and notable for its keen interest in outer space, rampant corporate plagiarism, and hatred of cheese. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 6.87 billion Yahlians are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The enormous, liberal, socially-minded, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Environment, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Belgrade. The income tax rate is 100%.

The frighteningly efficient Yahlian economy, worth a remarkable 1,532 trillion euros a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology and Book Publishing. Average income is an amazing 223,056 euros, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Criminals and college students are taking an interest in the government's new weed-killing program, proper policy proposals prerequire professional peer-reviewed papers, people across the world seek to be healthier by eliminating carbs, and the government seeks peaceful forum with terrorists. Crime is totally unknown. Yahlia's national animal is the badger, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is secularism.

Yahlia is ranked 206,291^st in the world and 1,002^nd in Europe for Largest Basket Weaving Sector, scoring -12.24 on the Hickory Productivity Index.
