The Imperial Federation of The State of Monavia is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Charles IX and Elizabeth VI with an even hand, and remarkable for its rum-swilling pirates, ubiquitous missile silos, and avant-garde cinema. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cheerful, devout population of 44.098 billion Monavians are free to succeed or fail in life on their own merits; the successful tend to enjoy an opulent (but moralistic) lifestyle, while the failures can be seen crowding out most jails.

The relatively small, corrupt, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Chalcedon. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 1.5%.

The frighteningly efficient Monavian economy, worth an astonishing 12,288 trillion Monavian thalers a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Arms Manufacturing, and Retail. Average income is an amazing 278,653 Monavian thalers, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 1,259,591 per year while the poor average 37,893, a ratio of 33.2 to 1.

Exports of chewing gum are inexplicably falling, tourists are denied entry because of a distant relative married to a Lilliputian, many whiskies taste suspiciously like automobile radiators, and every day's an auto-de-fé day. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. The State of Monavia's national animal is the golden eagle, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

The State of Monavia is ranked 3,415^th in the world and 2^nd in Nova for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring 7,105.52 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
