The Incorporated States of Ylaya is a tiny, economically powerful nation, notable for its compulsory military service. Its hard-nosed, hard-working, intelligent population of 5 million have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Social Welfare, Healthcare, and Education. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 20%. A robust private sector is led by the Soda Sales, Gambling, and Beef-Based Agriculture industries.

Crime -- especially youth-related -- is relatively low, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Ylaya's national animal is the ylayan eagle and its currency is the ylayan peso.
