The Queen's State of Liebknechtia is a gargantuan, efficient nation, remarkable for its barren, inhospitable landscape and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 17.505 billion Liebknechtians are effectively ruled by a group of massive corporations, who run for political office and provide their well-off citizens with world-class goods and services. Their poorer citizens, however, are mostly starving to death while being urged to go out and get real jobs. The populace has reasonably extensive civil rights, although these are mostly aimed at allowing them to buy whatever they like.

The tiny, pro-business, outspoken government is primarily concerned with Law & Order, with Education, Defense, and Healthcare also on the agenda, while Spirituality and International Aid are ignored. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 6.4%.

The thriving Liebknechtian economy, worth a remarkable 1,317 trillion betales a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Soda Sales industry, with major contributions from Door-to-door Insurance Sales, Uranium Mining, and Furniture Restoration. Average income is 75,292 betales, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 250,600 per year while the poor average 16,856, a ratio of 14.9 to 1.

Voting is voluntary, the nation's official head of religious affairs is an atheist, and surveillance cameras are banned. Crime is moderate. Liebknechtia's national animal is the deer, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

Liebknechtia is ranked 194,753rd in the world and 9th in Nevada for Nicest Citizens, with 10.55 average smiles per day.
