The Democratic Monarchy of Lievenland is a colossal, socially progressive nation, ruled by King Mikkael with an even hand, and remarkable for its museums and concert halls, frequent executions, and otherworldly petting zoo. The compassionate population of 4.859 billion Lievians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social and economic equality; they tend to view other countries as corrupted by the hollow pageantry of sham elections.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Fjåltir. The average income tax rate is 83.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The powerhouse Lievenian economy, worth 388 trillion Gelds a year, is quite specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 80,009 Gelds, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The regional delicacy of chocolate bombes is deadlier than an unexploded bomb, the nation has opened its arms to an influx of refugees, you can call your arthritic immigrant neighbour for all your roof-tiling and guttering needs, and the well-to-do in Europeia are never on time for important appointments. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Lievenland's national animal is the Lievenian Brown Bear, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Nordic Paganism.

Lievenland is ranked 287,406^th in the world and 1,213^th in Europeia for Largest Trout Fishing Sector, scoring -6.63 on the Nemo Depletion Efficiency Index.
