The People's Monarchy of Leirkra is a gargantuan, genial nation, ruled by Lady Eunsae with an even hand, and notable for its prohibition of alcohol, parental licensing program, and irreverence towards religion. The compassionate population of 17.785 billion Leirkranians 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 government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked morass — juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Reiden City. The average income tax rate is 98.9%.

The frighteningly efficient Leirkran economy, worth a remarkable 2,629 trillion Leirkan Notes a year, is driven almost entirely by government activity. The industrial sector, which is extremely specialized, is mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 147,860 Leirkan Notes, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Companies have begun running campaigns to stop people from remembering their brand name, the possibility of gain causes universal pain, guide dogs for the blind have been seen using government websites, and parents seeking custody have to write a five-thousand word analysis of their child's imaginary friend. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Leirkra's national animal is the grass owl, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Leirkra is ranked 3,014th in the world and 48th in 10000 Islands for Largest Governments, scoring 49.76 on the Bureaucratic Comprehensiveness Rating Scale Index.
