The Dancing Plagues of Levont is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by Mysterious man with no medical expertise with a fair hand, and renowned for its museums and concert halls, pith helmet sales, and disturbing lack of elderly people. The hard-nosed, democratic, humorless, devout population of 9.562 billion Levontians are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The large, corrupt, liberal government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Education, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of The Dance Floor. The average income tax rate is 91.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Levontian economy, worth a remarkable 2,284 trillion Carnations a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is an enormous, deeply entrenched, quite specialized black market in Tourism, Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, and Book Publishing. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an amazing 238,884 Carnations, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

There'll be no comeback tour for many former boy bands, the thin blue line is composed of picketing police officers demanding better pensions, commuters often break into synchronised para-para dancing for no reason at all, and the national guard is mobilized whenever a mother gets separated from her child at the mall. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Levont's national animal is the Rat, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Hellenic.

Levont is ranked 303,802nd in the world and 275th in Karma for Most Primitive, scoring -342.03 on the Scary Big Number Scale.
