The Principality of Yesmiran is a huge, environmentally stunning nation, notable for its compulsory military service, punitive income tax rates, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic, devout population of 510 million Yesmiranians love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.

The enormous, socially-minded, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Welfare, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Blertirel. The average income tax rate is 75.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but sluggish Yesmiranian economy, worth 14.6 trillion paldis a year, is quite specialized and led by the Beef-Based Agriculture industry, with significant contributions from Furniture Restoration, Tourism, and Retail. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 28,557 paldis, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Coffee-addicted citizens look forward to baristas getting their name wrong at local coffee shops, the military refers to helpless combatants offering surrender as "sitting ducks", increasing numbers of children in Yesmiran have different eye and hair color to their supposed fathers, and the urban poor thumbs down the new hitchhiking ban. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Yesmiran's national animal is the Dalmatian Pelican, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Yesmiran is ranked 300,751^st in the world and 8^th in Clio for Largest Manufacturing Sector, scoring 1,002.22 on the Gooback-Jerbs Productivity Index.
