The Untitled Empire of Monolithum is a mammoth, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Phillips de Jesus with an even hand, and notable for its compulsory military service, vat-grown people, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, humorless population of 7.884 billion Monolithumians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large, corrupt, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Cendres. The average income tax rate is 87.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Monolithumian economy, worth a remarkable 1,245 trillion Myths a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is fairly diversified, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Tourism, and Book Publishing. Average income is an impressive 158,015 Myths, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Politicians frequently make unusual poses during speeches in hopes of inspiring the next internet fad, tree farms across the nation are overrun by clipboard-wielding biologists, friendly revolutionaries are the nation's greatest export, and the government loves seeing the little people fight. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Monolithum's national animal is the Monolithumian Swan, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Monolithum is ranked 232,084^th in the world and 199^th in The League for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring -4.58 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
