The Federal Village of MountAye is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by Prime Villager with a fair hand, and notable for its museums and concert halls, smutty television, and free-roaming dinosaurs. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 6.82 billion MountAyers hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized, liberal government juggles the competing demands of Education, Industry, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Tsingtao. The average income tax rate is 50.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient MountAyean economy, worth a remarkable 1,248 trillion bottle caps a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Retail, and Book Publishing. Average income is an impressive 183,095 bottle caps, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.0 times as much as the poorest.

Competing private ambulances racing to be the first to traffic accidents are a major cause of road accidents, pocket calculators are seen as status symbols for the ostentatiously wealthy, sections of the police receive paramilitary training, and the nation's democracy attracts huddled masses yearning to breathe free. Crime is totally unknown. MountAye's national animal is the sea dragon, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is the Philosophy of Science.

MountAye is ranked 41,348^th in the world and 7^th in Philosophers for Most Extensive Civil Rights, with 79.67 Martin Luther King, Jr. Units.
