The República Federal of Lev Ao is a colossal, cultured nation, ruled by Duke Luke with a fair hand, and remarkable for its soft-spoken computers, pith helmet sales, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic, devout population of 2.766 billion Lev Aoans hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The large, liberal, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Levon. The average income tax rate is 81.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Lev Aoan economy, worth 394 trillion Raposas a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is an impressive 142,793 Raposas, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The past is set in stone, community-designed sword prostheses are becoming dangerously common, government officials across Lev Ao are being "encouraged" to adopt Raposas to set an example for the populace, and men are finding 'she spots' more easily but they can't use them. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Lev Ao's national animal is the Raposa, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Crimson.

Lev Ao is ranked 87,289^th in the world and 421^st in the Outback for Most Corrupt Governments, with 20.43 kickbacks per hour.
