Overview • Factbook • Policies • People • Government • Economy • Rank • Trend • Cards

The Hermit Kingdom of Lekamen is a massive, cultured nation, ruled by Madam President Yun-jin with an even hand, and renowned for its frequent executions, zero percent divorce rate, and prohibition of alcohol. The humorless population of 3.331 billion Lekans 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 enormous, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Education, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Pyongyang. The average income tax rate is 93.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Lekamenian economy, worth 436 trillion Lekan Rubis a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Book Publishing, and Tourism. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 131,131 Lekan Rubis, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The nation solves other countries' human rights problems with a generous dose of violence, the Great Lekamenian Melting Pot boils out ethnic heritage, lifelong celibates are surprised to receive government-issue condoms in the post, and happiness is all being miserable together. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Lekamen's national animal is the White Wolf, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Lekan Mythology.

Lekamen is ranked 276,297^th in the world and 1,240^th in Europe for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring -8.02 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
