The Federal Republic of Ythaly is a huge, cultured nation, remarkable for its museums and concert halls, free-roaming dinosaurs, and compulsory military service. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 591 million Ythalians 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 medium-sized, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Industry, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Ynice. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 45.5%.

The frighteningly efficient Ythalyian economy, worth 65.7 trillion denarii a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Retail, and Arms Manufacturing. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 111,090 denarii, with the richest citizens earning 7.7 times as much as the poorest.

The government extracts trade concessions from poor nations in exchange for humanitarian aid, Ythaly has one of the largest offshore wind farms in the world, the mood of raunchy movies is often ruined by the sound of babies crying, and urban planners beg for just one more lane before bedtime. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Ythaly's national animal is the deer, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Ythaly is ranked 213,712^th in the world and 3^rd in IS Federation for Highest Drug Use, scoring 86 on the Pineapple Fondness Rating.
