The Country of Monotome is a mammoth, efficient nation, ruled by Dan with an even hand, and notable for its museums and concert halls, frequent executions, and sprawling nuclear power plants. The hard-working, devout population of 5.622 billion Meaners have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Law & Order, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Monotome Capital City. The average income tax rate is 24.8%.

The powerhouse Monotomean economy, worth 517 trillion mezins a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Cheese Exports, Door-to-door Insurance Sales, and Tourism. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 91,886 mezins, with the richest citizens earning 5.1 times as much as the poorest.

The economy is green and the air is black, anti-government political posters adorn every building like wallpaper, the poor are forced into bankruptcy by their energy bills, and murderers and thieves claim divine inspiration to avoid prosecution. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Monotome's national animal is the cat, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is The Golden Cat.

Monotome is ranked 188,600^th in the world and 354^th in 10000 Islands for Most Extensive Public Healthcare, scoring 983.43 on the Theresa-Nightingale Rating.
