The Grand Combine of Naval Monte is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, ruled by Consul Monique D'Aubainne with a fair hand, and notable for its national health service, ubiquitous missile silos, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful, devout population of 22.32 billion Naval Monteans hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Carmina Aurorae. The average income tax rate is 94.1%.

The frighteningly efficient Naval Montean economy, worth a remarkable 4,505 trillion Marina Lire a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Arms Manufacturing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 201,872 Marina Lire, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Ambulances aren't allowed to overtake hearses, the nation's atlases tend to go out of date every few weeks, the government has declared that sharing is uncaring, and Carmina Aurorae Preparatory School for the Exceedingly Wealthy's basketball team is having a few off-years. Crime is totally unknown. Naval Monte's national animal is the Crow, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Esoteric Occultism.

Naval Monte is ranked 155,346^th in the world and 42^nd in The Bar on the corner of every region for Most Extreme, scoring 18.59 on the Paul-Nader Subjective Decentrality Index.
