The Republic of Yerrayaz is a titanic, safe nation, notable for its museums and concert halls, ubiquitous missile silos, and conspicuous electricity pylons. The compassionate, humorless, devout population of 16.935 billion Yerrayazians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 87.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Yerrayazian economy, worth a remarkable 2,136 trillion dollars a year, is quite specialized and mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Arms Manufacturing, and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 126,153 dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.4 times as much as the poorest.

Windows in Yerrayaz City don't have much of a view, the government is proudly free of crabs, soldiers have a preference for fire-and-forget payloads, and urban planners beg for just one more lane before bedtime. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Yerrayaz's national animal is the octopus, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.

Yerrayaz is ranked 298,571^st in the world and 4^th in Delaware for Highest Disposable Incomes, with 15,264.58 Standard Monetary Units.
