The Elysian Empire of Yevali is a colossal, safe nation, ruled by King Viktor I with an even hand, and notable for its avant-garde cinema, punitive income tax rates, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate population of 5.886 billion Yevalians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Administration, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Viktorpol. The average income tax rate is 75.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The very strong Yevalian economy, worth 388 trillion skudanis a year, is quite specialized and dominated by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Basket Weaving, Book Publishing, and Trout Farming. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 66,083 skudanis, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Snooze factory is now prison lingo for rehabilitation center, politicians always seem reluctant to publish their tax returns, Jennifer Government is a bestseller, and several citizens have complained about scientists abducting their pets for experimentation. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Yevali's national animal is the raccoon, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Yevalian mythology.

Yevali is ranked 39,196^th in the world and 2^nd in Crux of Liberation for Lowest Crime Rates, with 78.04 law-abiding acts per hour.
