The Dancing Plagues of Levont is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by Mysterious man with no medical expertise with a fair hand, and remarkable for its teetotalling pirates, infamous sell-swords, and public floggings. The hard-nosed, democratic, humorless, devout population of 8.056 billion Levontians 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 medium-sized, corrupt, liberal government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Education, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of The Dance Floor. The average income tax rate is 88.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Levontian economy, worth a remarkable 1,914 trillion Levs a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is an enormous, deeply entrenched black market in Arms Manufacturing, Tourism, Information Technology, and Retail. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an amazing 237,674 Levs, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The election for Mysterious man with no medical expertise's office's janitor is heating up, noises louder than a whisper have been prohibited by law, crime suspects are forced to submit to blood testing, and government officials frown on anything more technologically advanced than an abacus. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Levont's national animal is the Rat, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Hellenic.

Levont is ranked 17,128th in the world and 23rd in Karma for Lowest Crime Rates, with 91.7 law-abiding acts per hour.
