The Republic of Levantin is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by President Remayel with an even hand, and notable for its avant-garde cinema, prohibition of alcohol, and suspicion of poets. The hard-nosed, hard-working population of 1.339 billion Levantines 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 relatively small government is primarily concerned with Defense, with Industry, Law & Order, and Education also on the agenda, while Spirituality and International Aid receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Teleth. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 18.5%.

The all-consuming Levantine economy, worth 141 trillion Levantine Credits a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Information Technology, and Cheese Exports. Average income is an impressive 105,471 Levantine Credits, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 340,323 per year while the poor average 24,720, a ratio of 13.8 to 1.

The examiners who examine examiners are being examined by examiners, the government is spending millions on renovating the public transportation system, celebrity foodies are biting a huge chunk out of the government budget, and only persecuted professionals need apply. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Levantin's national animal is the Camel, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Christianity.

Levantin is ranked 46,095^th in the world and 1,721^st in The East Pacific for Largest Publishing Industry, scoring 4,320.62 on the Bella Potter Productivity e-Index.
