The Kingdom of Leonaru is a massive, safe nation, ruled by Captain-General Edgar Suffolk with an even hand, and notable for its ban on automobiles, otherworldly petting zoo, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate population of 4.407 billion Leonaruans are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous government juggles the competing demands of Education, Defense, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Hanover. The average income tax rate is 93.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Leonaruan economy, worth 625 trillion marks a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Arms Manufacturing. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 141,824 marks, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Space research funding has hit a recent high while several military bases are being closed down, a cat may look at a king and a dude can look at an ass, the slowest students feel vaguely targeted by their Mendelian Inheritance coursework, and residents of houses built on a foundation of wishful thinking are prone to an odd sinking feeling. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Leonaru's national animal is the Wolf, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Leonaru is ranked 14,851^st in the world and 333^rd in The East Pacific for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 330.72 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
