The People's Republic of Yurenthia is a mid-sized, genial nation, renowned for its museums and concert halls, irreverence towards religion, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate population of 50 million Yurenthians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Welfare, and Administration. The average income tax rate is 58.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but inefficient Yurenthian economy, worth 2.29 trillion Yurenthian Arias a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is fairly diversified, is led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Cheese Exports, and Information Technology. Average income is 45,765 Yurenthian Arias, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Scientists take credit every time it rains in Europeia, citizens gather eagerly to witness exotic animals being blasted out of cannons, increasing numbers of children in Yurenthia have different eye and hair color to their supposed fathers, and all work and no play has rendered the nation's children somewhat intelligent but also remarkably dull. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Yurenthia's national animal is the Red Lipped Batfish, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.

Yurenthia is ranked 298,260^th in the world and 1,222^nd in Europeia for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring -8.66 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
