The Prefecture of New Monture is a massive, socially progressive nation, ruled by Premier Ignacio Buenaventura with a fair hand, and notable for its unlimited-speed roads, free-roaming dinosaurs, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic population of 4.568 billion Monturians 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, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Maceió. The average income tax rate is 48.7%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The thriving Monturian economy, worth 366 trillion Foors a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is fairly diversified, is led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Cheese Exports, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. Average income is 80,189 Foors, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Government critics have noticed a lot of new neighbors with expensive surveillance equipment in their garages, new pilots are regularly reminded that they are more expendable than their planes, buses are widely regarded as the safest way to travel, and Premier Ignacio Buenaventura has taken to wearing medal-adorned military uniform in all public appearances. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. New Monture's national animal is the Vicuna, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

New Monture is ranked 20,462^nd in the world and 35^th in The Free Nations Region for Highest Food Quality, scoring 115.61 on the Meeshlin-Starr Index.
