The Federal Republic of Lev1and is a huge, efficient nation, remarkable for its infamous sell-swords, pith helmet sales, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, hard-working population of 780 million Levvishes are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Administration, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Tischien. The average income tax rate is 30.8%.

The frighteningly efficient Levvish economy, worth 88.2 trillion Euros a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Retail industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Tourism, and Book Publishing. Average income is an impressive 113,047 Euros, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.2 times as much as the poorest.

Interest in globalism never flags, Big Agriculture has the government by the nuts, colonial citizens are forced to sing the praise of the "Great Levvish Liberator", and bars are packed at all hours. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Lev1and's national animal is the Cat, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Lev1and is ranked 283,831^st in the world and 155^th in Mitteleuropa for Most Cheerful Citizens, with 46.62 Percentage Of Water Glasses Perceived Half-Full.
