The Yellow Banana Plantations of Yuwen Empire is a colossal, cultured nation, ruled by Emperor Yuwen Xun with an iron fist, and notable for its museums and concert halls, avowedly heterosexual populace, and compulsory military service. The cynical, devout population of 7.646 billion Yuwen Empireans 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 Welfare, Healthcare, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Yuwen Mountain. The average income tax rate is 74.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming Yuwen Empirean economy, worth 712 trillion Jade Yuwen Coins 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 a large, well-organized black market in Book Publishing, Arms Manufacturing, Basket Weaving, and Trout Farming. 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 93,219 Jade Yuwen Coins, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.7 times as much as the poorest.

Scoutmasters debate whether luxury log cabins defeat the purpose of camping, seven-year-olds debate for weeks on the merits of the Oxford comma, a division of tanks navigating "as the crow flies" has driven into a ravine, and commemoration of the Great Texas War costs almost as much as the war itself. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Yuwen Empire's national animal is the Scarlet Macaw, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Buddhism.

Yuwen Empire is ranked 33,324^th in the world and 19^th in Texas for Most Authoritarian, with 1,640.95 milliStalins.
