The People's Republic of Lenodo is a small, genial nation, renowned for its state-planned economy, irreverence towards religion, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic population of 36 million Lenodoans are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.

The large, moralistic, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Education, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 66.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The basket case Lenodoan economy, worth 533 billion Zohrans a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is fairly diversified, is led by the Beef-Based Agriculture industry, with major contributions from Door-to-door Insurance Sales, Automobile Manufacturing, and Woodchip Exports. Average income is 14,812 Zohrans, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Citizens are barcoded to keep track of their movements, a well-funded social safety net protects the unfortunate, TV shows must meet strict ethnicity quotas, and shouting contests are an important part of government job interviews. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Lenodo's national animal is the Mamdani, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Lenodo is ranked 287,880^th in the world and 34^th in Nevadia for Largest Cheese Export Sector, scoring -6.2 on the Mozzarella Productivity Index.
