The Empire of Yeses is a gargantuan, genial nation, ruled by President with a fair hand, and renowned for its avant-garde cinema, pith helmet sales, and keen interest in outer space. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 20.768 billion Yesesians enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Education, Law & Order, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Yeses City. The average income tax rate is 29.8%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Yesesian economy, worth a remarkable 3,794 trillion colony dollars a year, is quite specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Information Technology, and Furniture Restoration. Average income is an impressive 182,708 colony dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Psychiatrists bizarrely accompany President to meetings with foreign heads of state, family isn't who you're born with but who you abandon in foreign countries, government officials sit helplessly as they are labelled 'Pompous Womples' by celebrities, and the fire brigade often deal with cases of burnt toast. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Yeses's national animal is the ant, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Religion of Yeses.

Yeses is ranked 951^st in the world and 49^th in the South Pacific for Largest Furniture Restoration Industry, scoring 13,526.27 on the Spitz-Pollish Productivity Index.
