The Republic of Yamindre is a mammoth, pleasant nation, remarkable for its barren, inhospitable landscape. The hard-working population of 6.636 billion Yamindreans have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Education. The average income tax rate is 23.8%.

The strong Yamindrean economy, worth 282 trillion rubles a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Basket Weaving industry, with major contributions from Retail, Uranium Mining, and Book Publishing. Average income is 42,496 rubles, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.7 times as much as the poorest.

The country's famous rainforests are being bulldozed by the mining industry, scientists earn more grant money for reproducing old experiments than trying anything new, citizens are barcoded to keep track of their movements, and thousands of children die every day from easily curable illnesses. Crime is well under control, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Yamindre's national animal is the parrot, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution.

Yamindre is ranked 292,884^th in the world and 1^st in The False Name Region II for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring -8.37 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
