The Free Land of Mona Nala is a tiny, socially progressive nation, notable for its compulsory military service. The hard-working, democratic population of 14 million Mona Nalans enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Defense, and Law & Order. The average income tax rate is 20.2%.

The strong Mona Nalan economy, worth 599 billion dollars a year, is led by the Basket Weaving industry, with major contributions from Uranium Mining, Woodchip Exports, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is 42,841 dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.7 times as much as the poorest.

The mining industry is making inroads into environmentally sensitive areas. Crime, especially youth-related, is relatively low, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Mona Nala's national animal is the dog, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

Mona Nala is ranked 138,599^th in the world and 706^th in Concord for Safest, scoring 67.23 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
