The Republic of Leuck is a mammoth, efficient nation, remarkable for its smutty television, complete lack of prisons, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 5.802 billion Leuckerites hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The enormous, liberal, outspoken government prioritizes Education, although Welfare, Environment, and Social Policy are also considered important. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Leucktopia. The average income tax rate is 94.3%.

The frighteningly efficient Leuckian economy, worth 814 trillion Zennies a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Basket Weaving. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 140,415 Zennies, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.0 times as much as the poorest.

Community-designed sword prostheses are becoming dangerously common, foreign invaders are putting Leuckian lab rats out of a job, thalassophobia and heliophobia are on the rise, and jokes told in elementary school often come back to haunt politicians. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Leuck's national animal is the Chull, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Leuck is ranked 6,230^th in the world and 161^st in The Communist Bloc for Highest Average Tax Rates, with 94.27 Effective Tax Rate.
