The People's Democratic Republic of Montekegolia is a gargantuan, safe nation, ruled by Deputy Comrade Ilayive with an even hand, and renowned for its museums and concert halls, ban on automobiles, and sprawling nuclear power plants. The compassionate, cheerful, devout population of 14.457 billion Montekegoleans enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.
The government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked, socially-minded morass — juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Evilchiren Káenvereš Chapit'ol. The income tax rate is 100%.
The frighteningly efficient Montekegolian economy, worth a remarkable 2,607 trillion Pehsoes a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism and Book Publishing. Average income is an impressive 180,394 Pehsoes, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
The needs of the living outweigh the needs of the dead, the media seems excessively interested in what Deputy Comrade Ilayive is wearing this season, juvenile delinquents are fitter than ever, and saying 'Hi Guys' to a mixed gender group of people at work is a fireable offense. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Montekegolia's national animal is the owl, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.
Montekegolia is ranked 4,498th in the world and 36th in The Leftist Assembly for Lowest Crime Rates, with 119.19 law-abiding acts per hour.
