The Lesbian Separatist Island of Leiirion is a titanic, safe nation, ruled by Amazon Queen Gabrielle with a fair hand, and remarkable for its smutty television, restrictive gun laws, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 21.694 billion lesbians 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, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Social Policy, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of New Lesbos. The average income tax rate is 38.3%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Leiirionite economy, worth a remarkable 2,680 trillion gems a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Retail. Average income is an impressive 123,563 gems, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Tipsy fans frequently invite themselves to the board meetings of sports clubs, throwing garbage out of your house's front window makes it legally someone else's problem, newspapers are running a front-page picture of Amazon Queen Gabrielle holding a crowbar and standing over a bloodied stockbroker, and Amazon Queen Gabrielle is frequently seen begging critics to stop insulting the government. Crime is totally unknown. Leiirion's national animal is the phoenix, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Leiirion is ranked 13,052^nd in the world and 2^nd in Lesbian for Most Cultured, scoring 102 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
