Human Rights


Historically, Yakynda had a long tradition of being highly criticised by various countries for its numerous and wide-scale human rights abuses, dating back to the Yakyndan People's Republic. Very few actual basic fundamental rights are implemented, and Yakyndan elections, political parties and court systems are seen as nothing more than for show. There has also been scrutiny against the torture and mass executions of political dissidents, as well as the forced military recruiting of those considered to be "under the poverty line".

Since 2010, the ruling military regime has imposed more severe restrictions on travel for its citizens, as well as foreign travel into Yakynda. The military government restricts Internet access through human and software-based censorship that limits the material citizens can access online, and most popular and large non-Yakyndan websites are blocked in what is called the "Small Yakyndan Firewall". Homosexual acts are illegal in Yakynda.

Languages
The official language of Yakynda is Yakyndan, spoken by 98% of the population. Prior to the adoption of alphabetical scripts it used an indigenous logographic script known as the Mukaddes Yozuvi. It was used alongside the much simpler and popular Iyerogliflarni. During the Imperial era, the government mandated the creation and introduction of the Romanised Elipbizý alphabet, which soon became widespread across all Yakyndan institutions.

The standard dialect for Yakyndan is the Iýmit dialect. 5 other dialects are also in use around the country, Ovqat and Gıda being the most spoken ones.
