The Commonwealth of Leivan is a gargantuan, genial nation, remarkable for its unlimited-speed roads, absence of drug laws, and spontaneously combusting cars. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic population of 26.096 billion Leivanians live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.

The relatively small, liberal, pro-business, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Education, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Palm. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 12.6%.

The all-consuming Leivanian economy, worth a remarkable 1,654 trillion Levs a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Soda Sales industry, with significant contributions from Trout Farming, Tourism, and Book Publishing. Average income is 63,417 Levs, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 245,949 per year while the poor average 11,200, a ratio of 22.0 to 1.

The government seeks peaceful forum with terrorists, the government has declined to declare any particular religion as its 'official' one, the importance of winning Olympic gold medals is indoctrinated from an early age, and burglary is widely regarded as the national sport. Crime, especially youth-related, is a serious problem, probably because of the absence of a police force. Leivan's national animal is the Eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Leivan is ranked 303,613^th in the world and 4^th in The Beach for Safest, scoring 14.37 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
