The People's Republic of Yinglong is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, remarkable for its state-planned economy, frequent executions, and devotion to social welfare. The cynical population of 18.058 billion Yinglongese are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

The enormous, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Yìngjing. The average income tax rate is 79.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The large but inefficient Yinglongese economy, worth 996 trillion Renminbis a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is broadly diversified, is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Basket Weaving, and Furniture Restoration. Average income is 55,170 Renminbis, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Handsome young men are forced into uniforms by their dominant elders, the nation is ravaged by daily union strikes, police pull people off the street for even mentioning the word plane, and anyone dissenting from the state ideology is declared "mentally ill" and whisked away in a straitjacket. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Yinglong's national animal is the Serpent, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Yinglong is ranked 58,027th in the world and 9th in China for Most Beautiful Environments, with 652.54 pounds of wildlife per square mile.
