The Dictatorship of Leinstaux is a huge, safe nation, notable for its irreverence towards religion, punitive income tax rates, and suspicion of poets. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 328 million Leinstauxians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The large, moralistic, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, although Law & Order, Education, and Healthcare are also considered important, while Spirituality receives no funds. The average income tax rate is 54.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The Leinstauxian economy, worth 17.3 trillion Aens a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is fairly diversified, is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Uranium Mining, Pizza Delivery, and Book Publishing. Average income is 52,852 Aens, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.3 times as much as the poorest.

It is technically inaccurate to call the dead 'worm food', protestors are soaking piles of Aens in blood to make a point about government incomes, prison visits increase substantially during election years, and literature classes frequently go on field trips to rock concerts. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Leinstaux's national animal is the Eagle, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution.

Leinstaux is ranked 62,566^th in the world and 1,873^rd in the Rejected Realms for Most Valuable International Artwork, with 1.69 Bank.
