The Colony of Yomer is a mammoth, safe nation, remarkable for its museums and concert halls, absence of drug laws, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate population of 8.527 billion Yomerians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 95.3%.

The frighteningly efficient Yomerian economy, worth a remarkable 1,437 trillion doshes a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Tourism, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Average income is an impressive 168,572 doshes, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Nations that kill a Yomerian can expect a strongly worded letter, the latest Harry Potter book is a bestseller, minority children spend hours bussing to schools miles away from home, and the Party has more splits than a yo-yo dieter's trousers. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Yomer's national animal is the falcon, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Yomer is ranked 4,721^st in the world and 121^st in the South Pacific for Most Cultured, scoring 164 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
