The State of Yunu is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, ruled by the Governor with a fair hand, and notable for its complete lack of public education and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 23.629 billion Yunuans are effectively ruled by a group of massive corporations, who run for political office and provide their well-off citizens with world-class goods and services. Their poorer citizens, however, are mostly starving to death while being urged to go out and get real jobs. The populace has reasonably extensive civil rights, although these are mostly aimed at allowing them to buy whatever they like.

The minute, outspoken government, or what there is of one, is primarily concerned with Industry, with Public Transport and Defense also on the agenda, while Welfare and Social Policy receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Capital Heights. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 5.9%.

The thriving Yunuan economy, worth 987 trillion betales a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is quite specialized and led by the Basket Weaving industry, with major contributions from Beef-Based Agriculture, Information Technology, and Trout Farming. Average income is 41,803 betales, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 124,297 per year while the poor average 11,022, a ratio of 11.3 to 1.

Most academic research has ground to a halt, government officials frequently cut taxes as a distraction from antics with their secretaries, Yunu is notorious for its citizens' infidelity, and the government is spending millions on renovating the public transportation system. Crime is a serious problem, probably because of the absence of a police force. Yunu's national animal is the deer.

Yunu is ranked 144,909th in the world and 623rd in United States of America for Most Stationary, with 180.78819679548 days.
