The Protectorate Authority of Yatulia is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by High Priestess Gemma with an iron fist, and remarkable for its museums and concert halls, devotion to social welfare, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, cynical, devout population of 30.543 billion Yatulians are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

The large, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Education, Law & Order, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Yatulia City. The average income tax rate is 81.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Yatulian economy, worth a remarkable 3,699 trillion Yatulics a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Information Technology, and Beef-Based Agriculture. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 121,118 Yatulics, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.4 times as much as the poorest.

Local mafias have a tough time disposing of dead snitches without catching the attention of recycling authorities, people believe that if you teach a man to fish he won't buy fish from you any more, songwriters compete to see who can come up with the most blasphemous lyrics, and doctors spend more time writing sick notes than caring for the sick. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Yatulia's national animal is the Yatulian Owl, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is a major religion.

Yatulia is ranked 44,696th in the world and 1st in Spectrocity for Highest Average Incomes, with 121,118.33 Standard Monetary Units.
