Yorenz

The Republic of Yorenz is a huge, efficient nation, renowned for its closed borders, ritual sacrifices, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, devout population of 986 million Yorenzians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Industry. The average income tax rate is 34.7%.

The all-consuming Yorenzian economy, worth 91.4 trillion Lumiones a year, is fairly diversified and dominated by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Automobile Manufacturing, Woodchip Exports, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Black market activity is notable. Average income is 92,715 Lumiones, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.5 times as much as the poorest.

Some say Leader has gone MAD after authorizing the development of apocalyptic biological weapons, the news is showing footage of Leader bullying an old man to the point of tears, a National Academy regulates grammar and usage, and every workday begins with group therapy. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Yorenz's national animal is the Wolf, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

Yorenz is ranked 177,507th in the world and 17th in Holo for Smartest Citizens, with 27.42 quips per hour.
