The District of Mountbatten House is a titanic, socially progressive nation, ruled by privy council chairman with an even hand, and remarkable for its irreverence towards religion. The hard-working, democratic population of 21.229 billion Mountbatten Houseans have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Education, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of District City. The average income tax rate is 15.1%.

The strong Mountbatten Housean economy, worth a remarkable 1,046 trillion juno aurums a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Furniture Restoration industry, with major contributions from Uranium Mining, Cheese Exports, and Automobile Manufacturing. Average income is 49,306 juno aurums, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.7 times as much as the poorest.

The nation's official head of religious affairs is an atheist, surveillance cameras are banned, Mountbatten House has designated District City as its capital city, and Privy council chairman has just been declared ruler of Mountbatten House in an international press conference. Crime is moderate. Mountbatten House's national animal is the quick pink fox, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

Mountbatten House is ranked 190,214^th in the world and 1^st in Mountbatten for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 58.74 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
