The Holy Zombie of Yodl is a mammoth, efficient nation, ruled by Emperor Pig with an even hand, and notable for its enslaved workforce, parental licensing program, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, devout population of 6.85 billion Yodlians 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 large government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Yodle City. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 66.6%.

The powerhouse Yodlian economy, worth 635 trillion Gold Coins a year, is fairly diversified and dominated by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, and Beef-Based Agriculture. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 92,747 Gold Coins, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 279,076 per year while the poor average 24,045, a ratio of 11.6 to 1.

Potatoes are known for their lead aftertaste, labour strikes are routinely squashed by police, among slaves 'bastard' is an honorific rather than an insult, and it's never "just a game" with Yodlian sports fans. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Yodl's national animal is the Zombie, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Yodlism.

Yodl is ranked 267,793^rd in the world and 8^th in Yo Mama for Largest Trout Fishing Sector, scoring -5.14 on the Nemo Depletion Efficiency Index.
