The Free Land of Yos Skep Vers is a large, genial nation, remarkable for its national health service, sprawling nuclear power plants, and absence of drug laws. The compassionate, democratic population of 195 million Yos Skep Versians are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The large, liberal, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Education, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 49.2%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but inefficient Yos Skep Versian economy, worth 7.02 trillion Bells a year, is led by the Basket Weaving industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Trout Farming, and Cheese Exports. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 36,016 Bells, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The Ministry of Health has reported a sharp increase in the incidence of delayed menopause, the green glow is a sign of clean energy, a broken arm or leg no longer costs an arm and a leg, and citizens are remarkably well involved in the political process. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Yos Skep Vers's national animal is the Oguri, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Yos Skep Vers is ranked 32,429^th in the world and 52^nd in Aeternum for Most Compassionate Citizens, scoring 51.1 on the Kitten Softness Rating.
