The Empire of East Yourtanad is a colossal, cultured nation, ruled by Quentin Tundra with an even hand, and notable for its pith helmet sales, daily referendums, and smutty television. The compassionate population of 9.457 billion Yourtanadians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of St Lynx. The average income tax rate is 74.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming East Yourtanadian economy, worth 961 trillion Pokeballs a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is an impressive 101,700 Pokeballs, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Criminals and college students are taking an interest in the government's new weed-killing program, students are wary of colorfully decorated new teachers with names like Professor Pipsqueak, cotton candy made from genuine cotton cellulose doesn't quite satisfy, and collisions between bicycles and carnival floats are on the rise. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. East Yourtanad's national animal is the Snow Leopard, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Leopardism.

East Yourtanad is ranked 265,550^th in the world and 399^th in The League for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring -8.77 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
