The Republic of The New Mon is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, renowned for its compulsory military service. The hard-working, democratic, devout population of 4.618 billion New Monians 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 tiny government juggles the competing demands of Spirituality, Healthcare, and Education. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 8.2%.

The strong New Monian economy, worth 286 trillion florins a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Trout Farming industry, with major contributions from Cheese Exports, Retail, and Book Publishing. Average income is 62,046 florins, with the richest citizens earning 6.7 times as much as the poorest.

Crime, especially youth-related, is well under control. The New Mon's national animal is the cobra, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

The New Mon is ranked 105,071^st in the world and 1^st in Nebraska Territory for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 83.07 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
