The Commonwealth of Monianoli is a titanic, orderly nation, notable for its enslaved workforce, keen interest in outer space, and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 21.362 billion Monianolians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The tiny, corrupt, well-organized government prioritizes Industry, with Defense, Law & Order, and Education also on the agenda, while Environment and Welfare are ignored. Income tax is unheard of.

The frighteningly efficient Monianolian economy, worth an astonishing 14,058 trillion Kols a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Retail industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Arms Manufacturing, and Soda Sales. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are common. Average income is a breathtaking 658,110 Kols, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 1,962,596 per year while the poor average 172,803, a ratio of 11.4 to 1.

Looting and pillaging are now considered vital intelligence-gathering activities, the government seizes the property of the recently deceased, videogames like 'Equalia: Knights of Self-Confidence' are proving inexplicably unpopular, and Leader claims tax rises are the result of 'curses'. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Monianoli's national animal is the Owl, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution.

Monianoli is ranked 331,640th in the world and 2,427th in the Rejected Realms for Safest, scoring 2.06 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
