The Alföldi People's Republic of Ypogegrammeni is a gargantuan, genial nation, ruled by Grigoris Lambrakis with a fair hand, and remarkable for its ubiquitous missile silos, sprawling nuclear power plants, and irreverence towards religion. The compassionate, democratic population of 21.297 billion Ypogegrammeniots enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The enormous, liberal, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Education, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Tiryns. The average income tax rate is 91.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The large but sluggish Ypogegrammeniot economy, worth 846 trillion drachms a year, is highly specialized and mostly made up of the Book Publishing industry, with significant contributions from Tourism and Information Technology. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 39,770 drachms, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

There is something rotten in the state of Ypogegrammeni, high school boys are required to pass vigorous self-mastery and sensitivity training to graduate, the possibility of gain causes universal pain, and the government is avowedly secular. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Ypogegrammeni's national animal is the ram, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is its national religion.

Ypogegrammeni is ranked 289,075^th in the world and 297^th in Forest for Most Corrupt Governments, with 0.36 kickbacks per hour.
