The Federation of Yviria is a colossal, safe nation, ruled by Aleric Burdan with an even hand, and renowned for its museums and concert halls, frequent executions, and avant-garde cinema. The compassionate, hard-working population of 3.044 billion Yvirians 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 Education, Industry, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Ascendens. The average income tax rate is 56.5%.

The frighteningly efficient Yvirian economy, worth 537 trillion Yvirian Novis a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Retail, Arms Manufacturing, and Book Publishing. Average income is an impressive 176,679 Yvirian Novis, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.3 times as much as the poorest.

They say that Yvirians made a dessert and called it peace, families waiting for delayed pipe installations hope daily for rain, the year's most anticipated show is "Great Deals on Delicious Meals", and students are known to arrive at school in their pyjamas. Crime is totally unknown. Yviria's national animal is the Yvirian Eagle, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution.

Yviria is ranked 9,795^th in the world and 3^rd in Solstice for Most Developed, scoring 90.67 on the Human Development Index.
