The Tyrannical State of Yestleck is a colossal, orderly nation, ruled by High Lord Armanis with an iron fist, and remarkable for its compulsory military service, avowedly heterosexual populace, and prohibition of alcohol. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 7.863 billion Yestleckans are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The large, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government is primarily concerned with Defense, with Law & Order, Education, and Administration also on the agenda, while International Aid and Social Policy receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Malleonea. The average income tax rate is 91.3%.

The frighteningly efficient Yestleckan economy, worth a remarkable 2,113 trillion Aurums a year, is mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Arms Manufacturing and Information Technology. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an amazing 268,795 Aurums, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.5 times as much as the poorest.

One complaint of Yestleck's new periodic table is it's easy to confuse fearlessleaderium with gloriousleaderium, colonial citizens are forced to sing the praise of the "Great Yestleckan Liberator", officer recruitment and police brutality have reached an all-time high, and bilingual Yestleckans are viewed with suspicion. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Yestleck's national animal is the manul, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Yestleck is ranked 289,164^th in the world and 316^th in Wintreath for Highest Food Quality, scoring 3.28 on the Meeshlin-Starr Index.
