The People's Republic of Yet Another Approach is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, renowned for its state-planned economy, irreverence towards religion, and stringent health and safety legislation. The democratic population of 10.216 billion Yetaprochians are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.
The large, liberal, socially-minded, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Defense, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 50.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The large but sluggish Yet Another Approachian economy, worth 246 trillion yuhs 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 black market in Retail, Book Publishing, Information Technology, and Uranium Mining. 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 24,097 yuhs, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Yet Another Approach's national animal is the Attenborough's Fan-Throated Lizard, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.
Yet Another Approach is ranked 96,757th in the world and 80th in The Transitionists for Highest Average Tax Rates, with 50.49 Effective Tax Rate.
