The Armed Republic of Yaluna is a colossal, genial nation, ruled by President with an even hand, and notable for its zero percent divorce rate, complete lack of prisons, and keen interest in outer space. The compassionate, humorless, devout population of 9.066 billion Yalunans are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Yaluna City. The average income tax rate is 87.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Yalunan economy, worth a remarkable 1,053 trillion Yaluna Dollars 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 Trout Farming. Average income is an impressive 116,251 Yaluna Dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

In a baffling press conference President proudly dismantled a broken door, President has no checks and balances after the upper house was abolished, many parents are becoming frustrated with their children's choices in spouses, and government theft from poor artists to give to rich allies has been dubbed the "reverse Robin Hood" policy. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Yaluna's national animal is the Cat, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Christianity.

Yaluna is ranked 5,447^th in the world and 304^th in Lazarus for Safest, scoring 129.84 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
