The Republic of Leroniane is a huge, safe nation, notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, keen interest in outer space, and triple-decker prams. The hard-nosed, hard-working, devout population of 254 million Leronis are free to succeed or fail in life on their own merits; the successful tend to enjoy an opulent (but moralistic) lifestyle, while the failures can be seen crowding out most jails.

The relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Administration, and Law & Order. The average income tax rate is 21.0%.

The all-consuming Leroni economy, worth 24.7 trillion Pesos a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Retail industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Automobile Manufacturing, and Book Publishing. Average income is 97,244 Pesos, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.4 times as much as the poorest.

The alarmingly racist TV show 'Bigtopians Say the Darndest Things' is a hit, constituents prefer a carrot and boomstick approach to dealing with politicians, the military is recruiting war criminals to join its weapons research teams, and the government has adopted a more thrifty attitude to administrating the country's needs. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Leroniane's national animal is the Seagull, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution.

Leroniane is ranked 243,237^th in the world and 14^th in The Global Elite for Largest Populations, with 254 million capita.
