The Constitutional Monarchy of Monteleuce is a huge, safe nation, remarkable for its pith helmet sales, punitive income tax rates, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate population of 745 million Monteleucians 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 large government juggles the competing demands of Education, Defense, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Aurelia. The average income tax rate is 68.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming Monteleucean economy, worth 68.6 trillion mones a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Arms Manufacturing, and Furniture Restoration. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 92,081 mones, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Corrupt officials have adopted the greater good as their catchphrase, modelling agencies send their clients to work in nursing homes, foreign nations kill migratory animals at random in the hope that Monteleuce will pay them to stop, and anti-government web sites are springing up. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Monteleuce's national animal is the Phoenix Eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Monteleuce is ranked 27,034^th in the world and 44^th in The Land of Kings and Emperors for Most Extensive Public Healthcare, scoring 4,170.31 on the Theresa-Nightingale Rating.
