The Commonwealth of Monson is a colossal, cultured nation, ruled by Richard Anderson Blackadder with an even hand, and remarkable for its digital currency, smutty television, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, devout population of 7.093 billion Monsonians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Electroford. The average income tax rate is 71.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The powerhouse Monson economy, worth 694 trillion conkers a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Beef-Based Agriculture, Tourism, and Cheese Exports. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 97,934 conkers, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Reporters often lose their jobs over fact-checking errors, the military maintains a fierce arsenal of 'Cure Missiles', the government's foreign policy statements are less threatening than a World Assembly cease-and-desist letter, and tourists from around the world come to visit the country's famous rainforests. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Monson's national animal is the black thundercat, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Nostalgia.

Monson is ranked 10,683^rd in the world and 1^st in Lewisham for Safest, scoring 120.29 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
