The Federal Republic of Lev Ao is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by Duke Luke with a fair hand, and renowned for its pith helmet sales, sprawling nuclear power plants, and zero percent divorce rate. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic, devout population of 3.202 billion Levaons hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized, liberal government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Levon. The average income tax rate is 85.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Levaon economy, worth 510 trillion Foxes a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is fairly diversified, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is an impressive 159,540 Foxes, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Barbers who trim a few inches of hair bill the government for their labor, reassembling shredded papers is the highlight of a spy's day, a bill to outlaw math homework has been submitted, and naval armadas borrow their formations from synchronized swimming handbooks. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Lev Ao's national animal is the Fox, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Crimson.

Lev Ao is ranked 109,340^th in the world and 538^th in the Outback for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring 2,044.89 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
