The Federal Republic of Leistrona is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by Alexander Ivanov Sergeevich with an even hand, and remarkable for its frequent executions, national health service, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, hard-working population of 2.394 billion Leistronans 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 relatively small, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Education, Industry, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Nofronio. The average income tax rate is 39.2%.

The frighteningly efficient Leistronan economy, worth 406 trillion Lorliands a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Retail, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is an impressive 169,967 Lorliands, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.9 times as much as the poorest.

The seats at the back of the parliament are reserved for indigenous ministers, fashion magazine covers finally display realistic body images following photo-manipulation becoming illegal, passionate nomination battles are often as intense as general elections, and tourists often cite 'hiding money in an off-shore banking account' as their main reason to visit the nation. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Leistrona's national animal is the eagle, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Christianity.

Leistrona is ranked 77,109^th in the world and 399^th in Europe for Most Corrupt Governments, with 21.95 kickbacks per hour.
