The Second Federal Community of The Ysion is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by The Community Council League with an even hand, and renowned for its sprawling nuclear power plants, punitive income tax rates, and devotion to social welfare. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 10.816 billion Ysion are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Cassi City. The average income tax rate is 86.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming Ysionian economy, worth 970 trillion Ducats a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing. Average income is 89,757 Ducats, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Populations of two-headed Goats have been found around recently-uncovered archaeological sites, the government is pouring money into 'Operation Enduring Democracy', the tax department is having withdrawal symptoms, and residents of houses built on a foundation of wishful thinking are prone to an odd sinking feeling. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. The Ysion's national animal is the Goat, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is State Atheism.

The Ysion is ranked 37,300th in the world and 3rd in Ridgefield for Most Stationary, with 1,221.1982114882 days.
