The Watch how I Soar Nation of A Leaf on the Wind is a colossal, genial nation, ruled by Ephraim Barnes with an even hand, and notable for its digital currency, keen interest in outer space, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic population of 9.195 billion BrownCoats are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Serenity. The average income tax rate is 71.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The large but inefficient Leaf on the Windian economy, worth 438 trillion Credits a year, is quite specialized and mostly made up of the Book Publishing industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Information Technology, and Basket Weaving. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 47,637 Credits, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Advert breaks are played at lower volumes to make them easier to ignore, a well-funded social safety net protects the unfortunate, the most popular WhoTube videos are ones featuring parodies of iconic songs, and street preachers sell salvation with a side order of shame on every corner. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. A Leaf on the Wind's national animal is the Parrot, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Mirandaism.

A Leaf on the Wind is ranked 23,458^th in the world and 655^th in Balder for Most Income Equality, scoring 76.18 on the Marx-Engels Emancipation Scale.
