The Confederacy of Leveli is a massive, safe nation, ruled by quail with a fair hand, and notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, anti-smoking policies, and pith helmet sales. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic, devout population of 1.673 billion Levelians are effectively ruled by a group of massive corporations, who run for political office and provide their well-off citizens with world-class goods and services. Their poorer citizens, however, are mostly starving to death while being urged to go out and get real jobs. The populace has reasonably extensive civil rights, although these are mostly aimed at allowing them to buy whatever they like.

The relatively small, pro-business, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Industry, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Eystr. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 10.2%.

The frighteningly efficient Levelian economy, worth 153 trillion florins a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Information Technology. Average income is 91,481 florins, with the richest citizens earning 8.7 times as much as the poorest.

It is typical to be greeted by a string of curse words in Levelian restaurants, athletic teenagers are among the wealthiest members of society, country folk are sent to obligatory boarding schools to learn how to be civilized, and goldfish bowls are three metres in diameter. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Leveli's national animal is the falcon, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution.

Leveli is ranked 167,338^th in the world and 2,287^th in the South Pacific for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 333.57 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
