The City of Yarkuo is a colossal, genial nation, ruled by Jimmy Cooks with a fair hand, and renowned for its rum-swilling pirates, keen interest in outer space, and unlimited-speed roads. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic population of 6.124 billion Yarkuoese enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The relatively small, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Welfare, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Hanguang. The average income tax rate is 34.9%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The thriving Yarkuoese economy, worth 502 trillion Dollars a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Woodchip Exports industry, with major contributions from Uranium Mining, Retail, and Information Technology. Black market activity is frequent. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 82,022 Dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Light entertainment shows are light on actual entertainment, evenings at university debating societies often end with everyone acknowledging both sides may well be right, the love has gone in Yarkuo, and every political party claims that their platform is based on divine revelation. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Yarkuo's national animal is the Kangaroo, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Yarkuo is ranked 274,514th in the world and 1st in Universal House of Justice for Most Stationary, with 9.172910796 days.
