The Holy Pink Lucky Christmas of Yangchenia is a huge, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Empress Raisa Palikiri Laohi Guul-la with an iron fist, and remarkable for its compulsory military service, enslaved workforce, and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, devout population of 954 million Yangchenians are ruled with an iron fist by the corrupt, dictatorship government, which oppresses anyone who isn't on the board of a Fortune 500 company. Large corporations tend to be above the law, and use their financial clout to gain ever-increasing government benefits at the expense of the poor and unemployed.

The relatively small, corrupt, well-organized government is primarily concerned with Spirituality, with Law & Order, Defense, and Environment also on the agenda, while Welfare and International Aid aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Yangchan. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 9.3%.

The thriving Yangini economy, worth 69.2 trillion Yangini Ngultrums a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Trout Farming, Cheese Exports, and Information Technology. Average income is 72,501 Yangini Ngultrums, but there is an enormous disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 450,670 per year while the poor average 5,004, a ratio of 90.0 to 1.

Empress Raisa Palikiri Laohi Guul-la dines while Yangchan burns, the Foreign Ministry thinks an eye for an eye is a blindingly good idea, on graduation day the hats thrown in the air fly high enough to stun passing pigeons, and illegal immigration remains a hot topic. Crime is moderate, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Yangchenia's national animal is the Fire Dragon, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Yangchenia is ranked 121,493^rd in the world and 60^th in Aspen for Largest Basket Weaving Sector, scoring 2,630.7 on the Hickory Productivity Index.
