The Xenopolis of YoriZ is a gargantuan, genial nation, ruled by demographically representative panelists with a fair hand, and notable for its rum-swilling pirates, compulsory vegetarianism, and irreverence towards religion. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 43.121 billion well-informed floating voters are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The large, liberal, outspoken government prioritizes Education, although Environment, Healthcare, and Administration are also considered important, while Defense and Spirituality aren't funded at all. The average income tax rate is 99.4%.

The frighteningly efficient worker-controlled economy, worth an astonishing 15,380 trillion e-gold™s a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is an enormous, deeply entrenched, extremely specialized black market in Information Technology and Book Publishing. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an amazing 356,687 e-gold™s, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Harassed women are constantly hassled by guys who are "just giving them compliments", rioting during the nation's hosting of ORDER caused one million e-gold™s of property damage, die-hard fans excitedly cheer when the queen takes a rook, and all you have to do is pray to get into YoriZ. Crime, especially youth-related, is so common that it is unusual to encounter someone following the law, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. YoriZ's national animal is the bureau©rat, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

YoriZ is ranked 6,237th in the world and 23rd in Anarchy for Most Stationary, with 2,928.23887592592 days.
