The Republic of Leafpool is a mammoth, orderly nation, renowned for its burgeoning dolphin population. The cynical population of 9.77 billion Leafpoolians are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

The medium-sized, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Public Transport. The average income tax rate is 33.4%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The large but underdeveloped Leafpoolian economy, worth 258 trillion lire a year, is led by the Uranium Mining industry, with significant contributions from Door-to-door Insurance Sales, Information Technology, and Arms Manufacturing. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 26,461 lire, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Crime is almost non-existent, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Leafpool's national animal is the dolphin.

Leafpool is ranked 161,551^st in the world and 1,621^st in Alliance of Supreme Powers for Nicest Citizens, with 12 average smiles per day.
