The Great autism of Yaskir is a colossal, orderly nation, ruled by Dr Yuri Vernev with an iron fist, and notable for its state-planned economy, frequent executions, and otherworldly petting zoo. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless population of 7.431 billion Yaskirians are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The relatively small, corrupt, well-organized government is primarily concerned with Defense, with Education, Law & Order, and Industry also on the agenda. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Sector 1. The average income tax rate is 22.6%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Yaskirian economy, worth a remarkable 1,884 trillion Lirias a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is an enormous, deeply entrenched, broadly diversified black market in Information Technology, Arms Manufacturing, Retail, and Beef-Based Agriculture. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an amazing 253,606 Lirias, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.5 times as much as the poorest.

The intelligence community is playing 4-D chess with an imaginary spy network, even God cannot save you in Yaskir, the official Yaskirian Phrase Book weighs as much as a small child, and talking during class is a gateway to lifelong drug addiction. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Yaskir's national animal is the Eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Yaskir is ranked 68,624th in the world and 7th in Bar Farofa for Most Beautiful Environments, with 617.69 pounds of wildlife per square mile.
