The Federal Republic of Yamalti is a massive, efficient nation, renowned for its free-roaming dinosaurs, public floggings, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate population of 2.6 billion Yamaltians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Industry, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Yamaliaz City. The average income tax rate is 68.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Yamaltian economy, worth 259 trillion Yaltis a year, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Retail. Average income is 99,999 Yaltis, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Citizens live in superstitious fear of the mysterious glowing clouds that float over Yamalti, the nation leads the West Pacific in per capita stalking, abortions are routinely performed in the nation's hospitals, and government bureaucrats review designs for birdhouses to ensure they do not block the views of neighbors. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Yamalti's national animal is the leopard, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Yamalti is ranked 34,915^th in the world and 427^th in the West Pacific for Lowest Crime Rates, with 80.02 law-abiding acts per hour.
