The Community of Yandaw is a very large, efficient nation, renowned for its sprawling nuclear power plants, keen interest in outer space, and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic, devout population of 418 million Yandawans are effectively ruled by a group of massive corporations, who run for political office and provide their well-off citizens with world-class goods and services. Their poorer citizens, however, are mostly starving to death while being urged to go out and get real jobs. The populace has reasonably extensive civil rights, although these are mostly aimed at allowing them to buy whatever they like.

The tiny, pro-business government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Spirituality, and Education. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 6.5%.

The all-consuming Yandawan economy, worth 39.2 trillion rupees a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Beef-Based Agriculture industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Information Technology, and Gambling. Average income is 93,694 rupees, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 401,804 per year while the poor average 13,984, a ratio of 28.7 to 1.

Diplomats agree to the terms and conditions of peace treaties without reading them, there's nothing more gay than bleeding for your nation, emergency responders spend more time in the air than giving air, and sharing vacation pictures requires written consent from the entire beach resort. Crime is moderate, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Yandaw's national animal is the peacock, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Yandaw is ranked 212,970th in the world and 1st in Novamar for Longest Average Lifespans, with 68.83 years.
