The Democratic Republic of The Yeetusa is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by Collin Aldridge with an iron fist, and notable for its compulsory military service, ubiquitous missile silos, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 9.793 billion Yeetusans 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, well-organized government is dominated by the Department of Defense, with Industry, Administration, and Healthcare also on the agenda, while Environment and Welfare receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Telmania. The average income tax rate is 91.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Yeetusan economy, worth a remarkable 2,933 trillion Yeetusan Credits a year, is broadly diversified and mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Arms Manufacturing, Woodchip Exports, Information Technology, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an amazing 299,567 Yeetusan Credits, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.2 times as much as the poorest.

Country folk are sent to obligatory boarding schools to learn how to be civilized, the nation's government buildings are remarkable for being ugly concrete boxes, chain-gangs are often seen toting barges and lifting bales, and adverts proclaim it has to be healthy if the Mornay uses hand-grated Gallopavian Gruyère. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. The Yeetusa's national animal is the Yeetusa Crocodile, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to heavy metals seepage into national waterways.

The Yeetusa is ranked 21,759th in the world and 85th in Confederation of Corrupt Dictators for Lowest Crime Rates, with 88.31 law-abiding acts per hour.
