The Colony of Leaden Myr is a very large, cultured nation, notable for its public floggings, irreverence towards religion, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-working population of 351 million Leaden Myrians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Social Policy. The average income tax rate is 32.3%.

The Leaden Myrian economy, worth 17.3 trillion flasks a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Woodchip Exports industry, with major contributions from Uranium Mining, Automobile Manufacturing, and Soda Sales. Average income is 49,151 flasks, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.1 times as much as the poorest.

Leaden Myrian police have to pay out of their own pockets for bulletproof vests, 50% of adverts on children's television are for clothes made of cotton wool, Leaden Myr has designated Leaden Myr City as its capital city, and laser-wielding robots are taking aim at human hearts. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Leaden Myr's national animal is the blinkmoth, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Leaden Myr is ranked 136,395^th in the world and 10^th in The Northern Cheek for Fattest Citizens, with 9.99 Obesity Rate.
