The Cheesy Stuffed Crust Remains of Yugobatania is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, ruled by Monsieur L with an even hand, and remarkable for its sprawling nuclear power plants, state-planned economy, and digital currency. The hard-nosed population of 10.285 billion Yugobatanians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The medium-sized, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Vielo. The average income tax rate is 80.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Yugobatanian economy, worth a remarkable 1,911 trillion Brins 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 large, well-organized, broadly diversified black market in Information Technology, Arms Manufacturing, Tourism, and Retail. 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 an impressive 185,871 Brins, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Battlefield gains are quickly lost when enemies don't respect a time-out, concussed Erinevo Eagleball players cannot remember their lineup position, space has been brought down to earth with constellations of cancer cases across Yugobatania, and it's not only teenagers who mess around with fake IDs. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Yugobatania's national animal is the Erinevo Eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Cheesiness.

Yugobatania is ranked 17,430th in the world and 476th in The North Pacific for Most Subsidized Industry, scoring 7,658.8 on the Gilded Widget Scale.
