The New Vegas Empire of Yes Man is a gargantuan, safe nation, ruled by Benny with an iron fist, and notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, sprawling nuclear power plants, and enslaved workforce. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 21.756 billion Nevadans are ruled with an iron fist by the corrupt, dictatorship government, which oppresses anyone who isn't on the board of a Fortune 500 company. Large corporations tend to be above the law, and use their financial clout to gain ever-increasing government benefits at the expense of the poor and unemployed.

The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic, pro-business, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of The Tops Casino. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 31.6%.

The powerhouse Yes Manian economy, worth a remarkable 1,590 trillion bottle caps a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Retail, Uranium Mining, and Information Technology. Average income is 73,094 bottle caps, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 237,216 per year while the poor average 16,987, a ratio of 14.0 to 1.

Warfare increasingly resembles a video game, unemployed accountants keep double-entry ledgers of their benefit claims, citizens are allowed to rise or fall based on their own merits, and the Ministry of Truthiness now manages the entire media industry. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Yes Man's national animal is the radscorpion, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is a major religion.

Yes Man is ranked 125,735th in the world and 22nd in The Trunk of a Pontiac Tempest for Lowest Crime Rates, with 63.14 law-abiding acts per hour.
