The Serene Deliberations of Yraipotnoj is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, ruled by Malandros Gumbhi with a fair hand, and notable for its free-roaming dinosaurs, national health service, and daily referendums. The hard-nosed, democratic, humorless, devout population of 17.442 billion Yraipotnojis love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.

The large, corrupt, outspoken government is primarily concerned with Administration, with Industry and Education also on the agenda, while Welfare and Defense are ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Homesville. The average income tax rate is 70.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Yraipotnoji economy, worth a remarkable 2,437 trillion Loaves of Hovis a year, is highly specialized and mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Retail, Uranium Mining, Woodchip Exports, and Basket Weaving. Average income is an impressive 139,729 Loaves of Hovis, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.2 times as much as the poorest.

The volume of paperwork used to complete a single environmental assessment defeats the purpose, online terrorists are automatically assigned adverts for cheap balaclavas, the government response to disaster victims starving for bread is "let them eat stale cake", and a mushroom a day keeps the sadness away. 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. Yraipotnoj's national animal is the Capybara, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Deism.

Yraipotnoj is ranked 290,178th in the world and 6,367th in The North Pacific for Most Beautiful Environments, with 1.94 pounds of wildlife per square mile.
