The People's Republic of Yeonguo is a huge, efficient nation, remarkable for its complete lack of prisons, vat-grown people, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 730 million Yeonguoans 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 large, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, although Law & Order, Education, and Administration are also considered important. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Píngděng. The average income tax rate is 82.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming Yeonguoan economy, worth 108 trillion Rens 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 large, well-organized, broadly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Uranium Mining, and Woodchip Exports. 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 an impressive 148,337 Rens, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The military perceives nations hit by natural disasters as "easy pickings", the government blames all suspicious phenomena on flying saucers, the government extracts trade concessions from poor nations in exchange for humanitarian aid, and frat-house partying has become the national pastime. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Yeonguo's national animal is the Senrima, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Yeonguo is ranked 74,722nd in the world and 1,655th in The North Pacific for Largest Cheese Export Sector, scoring 3,309.16 on the Mozzarella Productivity Index.
