The Queen's State of Yale Lily is a gargantuan, orderly nation, notable for its state-planned economy, irreverence towards religion, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 33.927 billion Yale Lilyians are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The enormous government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Industry, and Defense. The average income tax rate is 66.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The Yale Lilyian economy, worth a remarkable 1,601 trillion betales a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is broadly diversified, is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Furniture Restoration, and Book Publishing. Average income is 47,215 betales, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.6 times as much as the poorest.

Students are known to arrive at school in their pyjamas, it is illegal for police officers to carry out searches due to strict privacy laws, government officials frequently cut taxes as a distraction from antics with their secretaries, and the nation's gigantic air force is both respected and feared. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Yale Lily's national animal is the deer, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Yale Lily is ranked 173,986^th in the world and 320^th in State for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring 455.75 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
