The Dominion of Matters of Money is a very large, socially progressive nation, renowned for its barren, inhospitable landscape, absence of drug laws, and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-working population of 308 million Matters of Moneyians enjoy some of the most opulent lifestyles in the region, unless they are unemployed or working-class, in which case they are variously starving to death or crippled by easily preventable diseases.

The tiny, liberal, pro-business government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Welfare. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 6.9%.

The strong Matters of Moneyian economy, worth 16.3 trillion DPS a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is fairly diversified and led by the Soda Sales industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Uranium Mining, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. Average income is 53,008 DPS, but there is an enormous disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 330,193 per year while the poor average 3,639, a ratio of 90.7 to 1.

Birdsong in the mountains has to be loud enough to drown out nearby jackhammers, the country's famous rainforests are being bulldozed by the mining industry, the government awards prizes to television shows featuring stereotype-breaking minority roles, and the latest Harry Potter book is a bestseller. Crime is a serious problem, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Matters of Money's national animal is the Yanese, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Matters of Money is ranked 131,117^th in the world and 14^th in Sui for Largest Trout Fishing Sector, scoring 1,992.18 on the Nemo Depletion Efficiency Index.
