The Republic of Yagodninsky District is a huge, genial nation, notable for its lack of airports, disturbing lack of elderly people, and suspicion of poets. The compassionate, devout population of 581 million Yagodninsky Districtians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Education. The average income tax rate is 49.3%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The powerhouse Yagodninsky Districtian economy, worth 51.6 trillion Ducats a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Beef-Based Agriculture, Uranium Mining, and Cheese Exports. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 88,780 Ducats, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.5 times as much as the poorest.

People who stay late at the office often come home to find their own funeral being planned, lobotomies haven't been the same after the practice was severed, a good deed is rewarded with a thank you note attached to a deportation order, and children seem to be getting better at lying these days. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Yagodninsky District's national animal is the Bear, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Yagodninsky District is ranked 96,988^th in the world and 729^th in Novaya Zemlya for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 955.38 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
