The Eternal Presidency of Chito and Yuuri is a massive, efficient nation, remarkable for its state-planned economy, sprawling nuclear power plants, and unlimited-speed roads. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 1.263 billion Yuurasians are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

The large, corrupt, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, although Law & Order, Education, and Administration are also considered important. The average income tax rate is 72.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The thriving Yuurasian economy, worth 114 trillion Blue Monies a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a slick, highly efficient, fairly diversified black market in Uranium Mining, Arms Manufacturing, Automobile Manufacturing, and Woodchip Exports. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is 90,742 Blue Monies, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The world outside is only known of in folklore, residential tower blocks are surrounded by warrens of concrete tunnels, droves of former desperados are applying to join the border police, and grannies with arthritic hands work miserably on factory production lines. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Chito and Yuuri's national animal is the Yuurasian Fish, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to heavy metals seepage into national waterways.

Chito and Yuuri is ranked 68,708th in the world and 34th in Atlanticana for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 111.02 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
