The Great Race of Yith is a massive, safe nation, notable for its frequent executions, enforced nudity, and stringent health and safety legislation. The devout population of 1.867 billion Yithians are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Law & Order, and Education. The average income tax rate is 72.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but sluggish Yithian economy, worth 44.2 trillion allotments a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is led by the Uranium Mining industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Basket Weaving, and Automobile Manufacturing. Average income is 23,679 allotments, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Group photos of the members of parliament are often mistaken for family reunions, earthquake sirens are a leading cause of hearing loss, diaper-wrapped shawarma is a fan-favorite, and the Messiah (formerly known as Brian) is a mayoral candidate. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Yith's national animal is the flying polyp, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Yith is ranked 84,534^th in the world and 18^th in Astral Sea for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 113.52 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
