The Empire of Yanai is a mammoth, socially progressive nation, notable for its absence of drug laws, complete absence of social welfare, and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-nosed, hard-working population of 7.66 billion Yanaians enjoy some of the most opulent lifestyles in the region, unless they are unemployed or working-class, in which case they are variously starving to death or crippled by easily preventable diseases.

The tiny, liberal, pro-business government prioritizes Defense, although Education and Industry are also considered important, while International Aid and Welfare are ignored. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 5.5%.

The strong Yanaian economy, worth 458 trillion Zens a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is fairly diversified and led by the Automobile Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Uranium Mining, and Pizza Delivery. Average income is 59,890 Zens, but there is an enormous disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 338,971 per year while the poor average 5,184, a ratio of 65.4 to 1.

'.lib' or '.con' domains indicate whether Yanaian websites are meant for liberals or conservatives, Yanai's children are widely acknowledged as the most foul-mouthed in the region, punitive tariffs protect local industry, and films are funded in accordance with the volume of tears shed when reading the screenplay. Crime, especially youth-related, is a major problem, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Yanai's national animal is the Dragon, which can occasionally be seen dodging aircraft in the nation's cities.

Yanai is ranked 117,154^th in the world and 14^th in Alvion for Largest Black Market, with 1.91 trillion Standard Monetary Units.
