The Democratic Republic of Leoparda is a tiny, socially progressive nation, notable for its state-planned economy, daily referendums, and irreverence towards religion. The compassionate, democratic population of 12 million Leopardans enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The medium-sized, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Welfare. The average income tax rate is 32.4%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The developing Leopardan economy, worth 402 billion Blooms a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is broadly diversified, is led by the Trout Farming industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Automobile Manufacturing, and Tourism. Average income is 33,537 Blooms, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Wilderness-dwelling hermits are surprised to find railway stations on their front doorsteps, soldiers must key in their passwords every time they want to reload their weapons, men are finding 'she spots' more easily but they can't use them, and kids are taught in schools to argue with their parents. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Leoparda's national animal is the Leopard, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Leoparda is ranked 111,022^nd in the world and 2,133^rd in The North Pacific for Largest Welfare Programs, scoring 1,287.46 on the Safety Net Mesh Density Rating.
