The Grand Duchy of Mon Sold is a massive, genial nation, ruled by Grand Duke Coenraad Botello-Gagliardi with an even hand, and renowned for its triple-decker prams, avant-garde cinema, and public floggings. The compassionate, devout population of 3.776 billion Mon Soldians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Arberghast. The average income tax rate is 74.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The strong Mon Soldian economy, worth 280 trillion jolsts a year, is quite specialized and led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Arms Manufacturing, and Basket Weaving. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 74,198 jolsts, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The installation of street lights across remote goat tracks has left citizens bemused, business is adjusting to new gender equality policies in the workplace, small patches of desolate land across the world are part of Mon Soldian sovereign territory, and lending money has become a major liability. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Mon Sold's national animal is the bowhead whale, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans, and its national religion is Circle of the Redfire Forest.

Mon Sold is ranked 101,920th in the world and 17th in Esvanovia for Largest Cheese Export Sector, scoring 2,506.3 on the Mozzarella Productivity Index.
