The Imperium of Leonism is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, ruled by Imperator Konsul Leo I with an even hand, and renowned for its sprawling nuclear power plants, smutty television, and devotion to social welfare. The hard-nosed, humorless population of 11.644 billion Imperials have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Leestcheck. The income tax rate is 100%.

The frighteningly efficient imperial economy, worth a remarkable 3,312 trillion Imperialmarks a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Book Publishing, and Tourism. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an amazing 284,451 Imperialmarks, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

First-time moms are expected to be experienced parents from day one, imperial companies generally just fire employees in lieu of giving them vacation, rude retail employees are now even ruder homeless panhandlers, and therapists can always squeeze in another house-call. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Leonism's national animal is the Blaumeise, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Leonism is ranked 232,548^th in the world and 7,515^th in Lazarus for Most Armed, with 0.09 Weapons Per Person.
