The Holy Blue Zombie of Yodle 85 is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Emperor Wuff with an iron fist, and notable for its ubiquitous missile silos, ban on automobiles, and pith helmet sales. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 4.219 billion Yodle 85ians are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Yodle City. The average income tax rate is 33.2%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The Yodle 85ian economy, worth 256 trillion Gold Coins a year, is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Trout Farming, Gambling, and Tourism. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 60,802 Gold Coins, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The government has pulled the plug on the auto industry, museums have more touchscreens on display than artifacts, female newsreaders distract the nation by breastfeeding during broadcast, and little children cry as their rainbow drawings are seized by the Straight-Thought Police. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Yodle 85's national animal is the Cow, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Orthodox Yodlism.

Yodle 85 is ranked 282,030th in the world and 19th in Yodlean Card Farms for Largest Publishing Industry, scoring -6.61 on the Bella Potter Productivity e-Index.
