The Second Holy Empire of Yurorvia is a colossal, safe nation, ruled by Yurorivian Holy Council with an iron fist, and renowned for its frequent executions, punitive income tax rates, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, cynical, devout population of 2.634 billion Yurorvians are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The enormous, corrupt, moralistic, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Aurora City. The average income tax rate is 71.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but underdeveloped Yurorvian economy, worth 94.4 trillion Aurorites a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a slick, highly efficient, quite specialized black market in Arms Manufacturing, Cheese Exports, Uranium Mining, and Information Technology. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is 35,820 Aurorites, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Ad-blocking has been nationalised, the government has officially clarified that "wee on your hands to save time" does not count as proper hygiene, exceptionally talented workers are praised more than Revolutionary heroes, and a nickname of "Doctor Death" probably indicates a decorated war hero. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Yurorvia's national animal is the Aurora Snow Fox and its national religion is Aurorism.

Yurorvia is ranked 206,802^nd in the world and 7^th in Estellia for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 51.76 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
