The Kingdom of Leispa is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by Peter II with an iron fist, and remarkable for its museums and concert halls, keen interest in outer space, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, cynical population of 2.243 billion Leispans are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Education, Law & Order, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Holsord. The average income tax rate is 73.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Leispan economy, worth 248 trillion Saarmarks a year, is quite specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Trout Farming, and Arms Manufacturing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 110,878 Saarmarks, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

A newly discovered small mammal's name translates into Leispan as 'your finger, you fool', government-run screening operations remove embryos with severe genetic disorders, Peter II is too busy listening to praise to get any work done, and shanty towns are forming in the suburbs of major cities. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Leispa's national animal is the Black-and-white Monjita, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Leispa is ranked 13,693rd in the world and 25th in Concord for Highest Food Quality, scoring 140.68 on the Meeshlin-Starr Index.
