The Grand Duchy of Mon Sold is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Grand Duke Coenraad Botello-Gagliardi with an even hand, and notable for its compulsory military service, free-roaming dinosaurs, and sprawling nuclear power plants. The compassionate, devout population of 3.692 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 73.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The strong Mon Soldian economy, worth 283 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 76,709 jolsts, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.1 times as much as the poorest.

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 28,283rd in the world and 6th in Esvanovia for Most Advanced Public Education, scoring 6,612.81 on the Edu-tellignce® Test Score.
