The Kingdom of Leinster is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Úgaine Mór with an even hand, and remarkable for its compulsory military service, daily referendums, and sprawling nuclear power plants. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 24.213 billion Leinsterians are free to succeed or fail in life on their own merits; the successful tend to enjoy an opulent (but moralistic) lifestyle, while the failures can be seen crowding out most jails.

The medium-sized, moralistic, pro-business government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Spirituality, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Dublin. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 22.4%.

The very strong Leinsterian economy, worth a remarkable 1,306 trillion punts a year, is quite specialized and led by the Gambling industry, with major contributions from Uranium Mining, Woodchip Exports, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Average income is 53,941 punts, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 164,781 per year while the poor average 13,686, a ratio of 12.0 to 1.

Protesters are up in arms over new nuclear power stations, Úgaine Mór has just been declared ruler of Leinster in an international press conference, referenda can be called for any law at the request of at least one third of the voting population, and Roman Catholicism has been named as Leinster's national religion. Crime is moderate, possibly because it is difficult to make it through a day without breaking one of the country's many regulations. Leinster's national animal is the dragon and its national religion is Roman Catholicism.

Leinster is ranked 181,298th in the world and 13th in Irish Lands for Largest Automobile Manufacturing Sector, scoring zero on the Henry Ford Productivity Index.
