The Flowering nation of Yourope is a massive, cultured nation, ruled by Deborah Williams with a fair hand, and notable for its state-planned economy, infamous sell-swords, and rampant corporate plagiarism. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 3.297 billion Flops hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The large, liberal, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Flopdon. The average income tax rate is 98.1%.

The frighteningly efficient Youropean economy, worth 703 trillion EUF Francs 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 Beef-Based Agriculture. Average income is an amazing 213,427 EUF Francs, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The nation's politicians are known more for the internet memes they spawn than any of their accomplishments, recent protests against birds flying too low have resulted in bloodshed, citizens are strongly encouraged to breathe less so as to limit the carbon footprint, and polygraphs are relegated to the dungeon exhibit in castle museums. Crime is totally unknown. Yourope's national animal is the Wolf, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Yourope is ranked 132,060^th in the world and 628^th in Europe for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring 785.06 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
