The Kingdom of Leadorite is a gargantuan, orderly nation, ruled by Leadman with an iron fist, and remarkable for its rum-swilling pirates, pith helmet sales, and hatred of cheese. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless population of 20.994 billion Lead Miners are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The large, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Defense, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Grand Leadmine. The average income tax rate is 95.5%.

The frighteningly efficient Leadoritean economy, worth a remarkable 6,154 trillion Leads a year, is quite specialized and mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Uranium Mining, Retail, Woodchip Exports, and Basket Weaving. Average income is an amazing 293,156 Leads, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.8 times as much as the poorest.

The military is plagued with unethical researchers, it is well recognised that you can't sustain communism without a bit of spirit, the economy is undergoing a traumatic transition to capitalism, and many former slaves are finding out there is such a thing as a free lunch. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Leadorite's national animal is the Leadworm, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Lead poisoning.

Leadorite is ranked 17,044^th in the world and 203^rd in The North Pacific for Largest Populations, with 21.0 billion capita.
