The Grand Republic of Mon Island is a colossal, cultured nation, ruled by President Antoine Rochette with an even hand, and notable for its multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, smutty television, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, hard-working, devout population of 6.075 billion Monians 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 medium-sized, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Miana. The average income tax rate is 76.1%.
The frighteningly efficient Monian economy, worth a remarkable 1,027 trillion veliars a year, is led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Arms Manufacturing. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 169,130 veliars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.6 times as much as the poorest.
A crystal a day keeps the establishment away, young people avoid opening doors for the elderly with impunity, naturists are jailed regularly for indecent exposure, and doctors who mutter "Oh my God" often lose their medical license. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Mon Island's national animal is the phoenix, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.
Mon Island is ranked 18,288th in the world and 722nd in The North Pacific for Lowest Crime Rates, with 90.77 law-abiding acts per hour.
