The Republic of Libetina is a tiny, efficient nation, remarkable for its compulsory military service. The hard-working, cynical, devout population of 7 million Libetinans are rabid consumers, partly through choice and partly because the government tells them to and dissenters tend to vanish from their homes at night.

The relatively small, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Spirituality, and Law & Order. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 9.2%.

The very strong Libetinan economy, worth 460 billion kronor a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Retail, Automobile Manufacturing, and Cheese Exports. Average income is 65,786 kronor, with the richest citizens earning 9.4 times as much as the poorest.

Crime, especially youth-related, is relatively low. Libetina's national animal is the leopard, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

Libetina is ranked 277,339^th in the world and 227^th in Lesbian for Highest Average Tax Rates, with 9.17 Effective Tax Rate.
