The Republic of Ysarga is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Angela with a fair hand, and notable for its flagrant waste-dumping, keen interest in outer space, and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic, humorless population of 13.121 billion Ysargans are effectively ruled by a group of massive corporations, who run for political office and provide their well-off citizens with world-class goods and services. Their poorer citizens, however, are mostly starving to death while being urged to go out and get real jobs. The populace has reasonably extensive civil rights, although these are mostly aimed at allowing them to buy whatever they like.
The minute, corrupt, pro-business, outspoken government, or what there is of one, prioritizes Industry, although Education, Administration, and Social Policy are also considered important, while Law & Order and Defense receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Yunaki. Income tax is unheard of.
The frighteningly efficient Ysargan economy, worth a remarkable 4,604 trillion Lumens a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Retail industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Soda Sales, and Gambling. Average income is an amazing 350,942 Lumens, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 3,215,545 per year while the poor average 4,082, a ratio of 787 to 1.
Sales of superhero insurance have skyrocketed after the government abandoned the police in favor of vigilantes, savvy nightclub-goers know that structurally unsound venues sell the cheapest drinks, a video of Angela wearing shock-blue face paint and smashing an electric guitar in front of a frenzied crowd is on endless repeat on the nightly news, and frequent broken zippers have resulted in safety pins making a fashion comeback. Crime, especially youth-related, is so common that it is unusual to encounter someone following the law, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Ysarga's national animal is the Angel, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Necromancy.
Ysarga is ranked 134,523rd in the world and 2,504th in the Rejected Realms for Largest Basket Weaving Sector, scoring 2,292.42 on the Hickory Productivity Index.
