The Constitutional Monarchy of Yrte Abshyli is a huge, safe nation, renowned for its keen interest in outer space, compulsory military service, and public floggings. The hard-nosed, hard-working population of 502 million Ytre are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Education, Defense, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Y tre. The average income tax rate is 29.2%.

The thriving Ytre economy, worth 37.7 trillion Suana Nolainas a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, and Basket Weaving. Average income is 75,173 Suana Nolainas, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.8 times as much as the poorest.

Funeral directors are frequently looking at their watches during funerals, Leader's family members carry literal get-out-of-jail-free cards, professional athletes juggle part-time jobs to avoid bankruptcy, and photos of picturesque coastal buildings are set against a backdrop of smokestacks and ship hulls. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Yrte Abshyli's national animal is the Phoenix, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution.

Yrte Abshyli is ranked 281,263^rd in the world and 126^th in Mitteleuropa for Nudest, with 40.25 cheeks per square mile.
