The Unbidden Free Republic of Yesopalitha is a titanic, efficient nation, notable for its anti-smoking policies, strictly enforced bedtime, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, devout population of 24.785 billion Yesopalithans are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked, socially-minded morass — juggles the competing demands of Education, Law & Order, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Freedom's Altar. The average income tax rate is 92.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming Yesopalithan economy, worth a remarkable 2,232 trillion Gold Coins a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is 90,071 Gold Coins, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Reflection is vital for badly behaved politicians, orange trees find it's not easy being green, cutting-edge missile systems are being retrofitted to twin-prop air force biplanes, and signatures have been replaced with illegible scribbles. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Yesopalitha's national animal is the Black Raven, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Mystrian Pantheism.

Yesopalitha is ranked 297,529^th in the world and 41^st in Anaia for Largest Mining Sector, scoring -11.31 on the Blue Sky Asbestos Index.
