The Arab Commonwealth of Monhaine is a mammoth, safe nation, notable for its irreverence towards religion. The democratic population of 8.383 billion Monhaineans love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.

The relatively small, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Education, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 17.7%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The large but inefficient Monhainean economy, worth 320 trillion Dreses a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Trout Farming, Information Technology, and Basket Weaving. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 38,240 Dreses, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.1 times as much as the poorest.

The army's use of chemical weapons leaves a bad taste in the mouth, the government awards prizes to television shows featuring stereotype-breaking minority roles, Leader has just been declared ruler of Monhaine in an international press conference, and Monhaine has designated Monhaine City as its capital city. Crime is almost non-existent. Monhaine's national animal is the Falcon, which can occasionally be seen dodging aircraft in the nation's cities.

Monhaine is ranked 115,913^th in the world and 15^th in Northern Utopia for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 86.6 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
