The Republic of Leafeland is a tiny, socially progressive nation, renowned for its irreverence towards religion. The democratic population of 9 million Leafelandians hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The relatively small, liberal government juggles the competing demands of Education, Welfare, and Defense. The average income tax rate is 18.4%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The Leafelandian economy, worth 355 billion leaves a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Gambling, Uranium Mining, and Arms Manufacturing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 39,500 leaves, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.4 times as much as the poorest.

Crime is well under control. Leafeland's national animal is the leaf, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

Leafeland is ranked 202,789^th in the world and 1^st in Eather for Largest Manufacturing Sector, scoring 5,774.45 on the Gooback-Jerbs Productivity Index.
