The Chair of Yar Phot is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Le président with an iron fist, and notable for its rum-swilling pirates, parental licensing program, and ubiquitous missile silos. The compassionate, cynical, humorless, devout population of 5.407 billion Yar 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 government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked, corrupt, socially-minded, well-organized morass — juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Yep. The average income tax rate is 96.1%.
The frighteningly efficient Yas economy, worth 611 trillion Kees 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 dominated by the Book Publishing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Trout Farming, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is an impressive 113,132 Kees, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Mums always ask their three-year-olds for permission before hugging them, the incidence of wrist sprains is falling, police officers catch up on their paperwork while handing their caseload to PIs, and cinemas play art-house movies to ever-shrinking audiences as film critics rule the industry. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Yar Phot's national animal is the Blue, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Islam.
Yar Phot is ranked 2,583rd in the world and 8th in Yggdrasil for Highest Foreign Aid Spending, scoring 3,705.94 on the Clooney Contribution Index.
