The Glorious Desmithening of Xasts Yatiopia is a colossal, safe nation, ruled by Muntashir with an iron fist, and remarkable for its ubiquitous missile silos, strictly enforced bedtime, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, cynical, humorless, devout population of 2.574 billion Xasts are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

The medium-sized, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Conelius City. The average income tax rate is 44.7%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Yatiopian economy, worth 338 trillion gloriously desmithenized tomatoes 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 a slick, highly efficient, broadly diversified black market in Information Technology, Tourism, Arms Manufacturing, 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 impressive 131,618 gloriously desmithenized tomatoes, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.7 times as much as the poorest.

Pro-life activists often lecture pregnant women undergoing routine prenatal screening, welfare recipients frequently parlay checks into homelessness, it is illegal to distribute Girl Guide Cookies without an advanced food hygiene diploma, and soldiers who shoot themselves in the foot are regarded as heroes. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Xasts Yatiopia's national animal is the Ivory Monster, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Kellertheism.

Xasts Yatiopia is ranked 187,600^th in the world and 13^th in The Outskirts for Largest Populations, with 2.57 billion capita.
