The Republic of Lenitania Proves is a huge, safe nation, ruled by Emperor Napoleon V with a fair hand, and notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, flagrant waste-dumping, and free-roaming dinosaurs. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 915 million Lenitania Provesians enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.
The relatively small, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Law & Order, and Healthcare. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 17.0%.
The strong Lenitania Provesian economy, worth 61.5 trillion dollars a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Woodchip Exports industry, with major contributions from Uranium Mining, Book Publishing, and Gambling. Average income is 67,256 dollars, with the richest citizens earning 5.8 times as much as the poorest.
Neon signs promoting safe driving often distract drivers, on graduation day the hats thrown in the air fly high enough to stun passing pigeons, computer users are buried daily in thousands of unsolicited emails, and orphanages are closing their doors as the government forces parents to actually raise their children. Crime is almost non-existent, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Lenitania Proves's national animal is the swan, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.
Lenitania Proves is ranked 218,078th in the world and 1,905th in the Pacific for Most Conservative, scoring 49.2 on the Bush-Santorum Dawning Terror Index.
