“Dance the plague away”

The Dancing Plagues of Levont is a titanic, socially progressive nation, ruled by Mysterious man with no medical expertise with an even hand, and notable for its teetotalling pirates, pith helmet sales, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, democratic, humorless, devout population of 13.374 billion Levontians 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 large, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Education, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of The Dance Floor. The average income tax rate is 91.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Levontian economy, worth a remarkable 3,304 trillion Carnations a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is an enormous, deeply entrenched, quite specialized black market in Tourism, Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, and Book Publishing. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an amazing 247,087 Carnations, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The national arsenal is full of sound and fury signifying nothing, children are brainwashed at a young age to accept "love and peace!" as a way of life, foreign visitors who show an interest in Levontian politics are immediately deported, and forecasts predict rains of loose lead and mortar shells for the next six weeks. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Levont's national animal is the Rat, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Hellenic.

Levont is ranked 286,454^th in the world and 181^st in Karma for Fattest Citizens, with 5.85 Obesity Rate.
