The People's Democratic Republic of Yelda is a gargantuan, safe nation, ruled by Chairman Diřgę with an iron fist, and renowned for its keen interest in outer space, multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, and smutty television. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless population of 41.241 billion Yeldans enjoy great individual freedoms in everything except elections, which, where they exist at all, are populist shams for a dictatorship government that has no intention of ever giving up power.
The medium-sized, liberal, pro-business government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Ikat Yeldashĉ. The average income tax rate is 98.3%.
The frighteningly efficient Yeldan economy, worth an astonishing 11,230 trillion New Yeldan Pounds a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Uranium Mining, and Information Technology. Average income is an amazing 272,303 New Yeldan Pounds, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 1,341,960 per year while the poor average 31,497, a ratio of 42.6 to 1.
The Yeldan Badürian Church has been named as Yelda's national religion, Chairman Diřgę has just been declared ruler of Yelda in an international press conference, recruitment posters proclaim the army to be both fabulous and fashionable, and most of the military's funding goes into researching space-age weaponry. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Yelda's national animal is the Klollen, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is the Yeldan Badürian Church.
Yelda is ranked 39,181st in the world and 4th in The Pleiades for Most Stationary, with 1,159.2314455914 days.
