The Commonwealth of New Lebier is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, ruled by Rhonda Swansong with a fair hand, and notable for its rum-swilling pirates, free-roaming dinosaurs, and frequent executions. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 10.845 billion Lebierians live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.

The minute, corrupt, pro-business, outspoken government, or what there is of one, prioritizes Industry, although Defense is also considered important, while Law & Order and Environment aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Libertania. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 1.7%.

The frighteningly efficient Lebierian economy, worth a remarkable 1,573 trillion Lebs a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Retail industry, with major contributions from Soda Sales, Gambling, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is an impressive 145,077 Lebs, but there is an enormous disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 772,746 per year while the poor average 14,339, a ratio of 53.9 to 1.

The nation leads the South Pacific in per capita stalking, television executives are interested in turning Rhonda Swansong's zany home life into a sitcom, only the richest get to see out of their windows, and safe drinking water is considered a luxury. Crime, especially youth-related, is all-pervasive, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. New Lebier's national animal is the falcon, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution.

New Lebier is ranked 46,695th in the world and 426th in the South Pacific for Largest Populations, with 10.8 billion capita.
