The Republic of Leoparda is a tiny, safe nation, notable for its daily referendums, irreverence towards religion, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic population of 8 million Leopardans enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The medium-sized, liberal, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Welfare, and Administration. The average income tax rate is 28.6%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The developing Leopardan economy, worth 269 billion Blooms a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Trout Farming industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Automobile Manufacturing, and Information Technology. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 33,720 Blooms, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Physics lessons mostly involve talking about emotional management techniques, posing for pictures is an integral part of military training, high school bands practice by moonlight, and the right school tie opens more doors than the right qualification. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Leoparda's national animal is the Leopard, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Leoparda is ranked 56,339^th in the world and 880^th in The North Pacific for Largest Trout Fishing Sector, scoring 4,435.35 on the Nemo Depletion Efficiency Index.
