The Settlement of LeikANsTo is a massive, genial nation, ruled by Harvata Sheanka with an even hand, and renowned for its avant-garde cinema, ubiquitous missile silos, and irreverence towards religion. The compassionate, hard-working population of 2.221 billion Leikanstanis have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Swanskea. The average income tax rate is 48.4%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The very strong Leikanstani economy, worth 125 trillion Metals a year, is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Woodchip Exports, and Furniture Restoration. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 56,521 Metals, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.1 times as much as the poorest.

Ghost regiments exist only on paper, parents must choose their children's names from a government-mandated master list, elections have become procedural nightmares due to voters persistently rejecting candidates, and consumption of cat memes has skyrocketed. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. LeikANsTo's national animal is the Berry Bird, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Catholicism.

LeikANsTo is ranked 79,689th in the world and 3,859th in Balder for Largest Furniture Restoration Industry, scoring 3,683.53 on the Spitz-Pollish Productivity Index.
