The Protestant Republic of Leagran is a gargantuan, safe nation, ruled by Moderator McGregor with an even hand, and remarkable for its deadly medical pandemics, aversion to nipples, and ubiquitous missile silos. The hard-nosed, humorless, devout population of 16.883 billion Leagranis are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Law & Order, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Praise-God. The average income tax rate is 54.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming Leagranian economy, worth a remarkable 1,428 trillion Punts a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Uranium Mining, Furniture Restoration, and Beef-Based Agriculture. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 84,638 Punts, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.9 times as much as the poorest.

It's said that any enemy of democracy is a friend to Moderator McGregor, sexuality-questioning teenagers are placed in locked rooms with dirty magazines and lewd posters, childhood friends of Moderator McGregor are living it large abroad at the taxpayers' expense, and chest pains are considered part of the dining experience in Leagranian restaurants. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Leagran's national animal is the Bobcat, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Leagran is ranked 32,848^th in the world and 6^th in Western Atlantic for Most Subsidized Industry, scoring 5,364.34 on the Gilded Widget Scale.
