The United Empire of Leborux is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by High Empress Lilith Dumaine with an even hand, and remarkable for its compulsory military service, pith helmet sales, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-working population of 5.222 billion Leboruxers 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 government juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Defense, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Kerriston. The average income tax rate is 55.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The thriving Leboruxer economy, worth 425 trillion Leborux Reais a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Tourism. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 81,438 Leborux Reais, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The Leborux Mental Asylum Party have recently won seats in parliament, rundown towns are frequently sold to billionaires for their pet projects, newspapers are celebrating High Empress Lilith Dumaine saving over a million cats from trees, and citizens are permitted to carry concealed handguns. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Leborux's national animal is the raven, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Leborux is ranked 27,036^th in the world and 5^th in The Betweenworlds for Safest, scoring 110.38 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
