The People's Republic of Leidmark is a huge, safe nation, renowned for its free-roaming dinosaurs, state-planned economy, and irreverence towards religion. The compassionate, democratic population of 361 million Leidmarkians 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 enormous, liberal, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Welfare, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Börkholm. The average income tax rate is 75.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but inefficient Leidmarkian economy, worth 15.6 trillion Kruunus a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is dominated by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Automobile Manufacturing, Basket Weaving, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Average income is 43,247 Kruunus, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Leidmark has designated Börkholm as its capital city, the voyages of obsolete star-trekking satellites on deliberate escape orbits are only just beginning, roadside walls are being built and mother nature is paying for it, and most barbers are also surgeons. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Leidmark's national animal is the Caribou, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Leidmark is ranked 48,522^nd in the world and 1,551^st in The North Pacific for Lowest Crime Rates, with 74.62 law-abiding acts per hour.
