The United Federal Empire of Monamburg is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Prime Minister Wilhelm von Bismarck with an even hand, and renowned for its free-roaming dinosaurs, sprawling nuclear power plants, and compulsory gun ownership. The hard-nosed, hard-working, humorless population of 14.774 billion Monamburgians 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, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Citadel. The average income tax rate is 59.9%.

The frighteningly efficient Monamburgian economy, worth a remarkable 6,673 trillion Monamburg marks a year, is broadly diversified and mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Information Technology, Arms Manufacturing, Retail, and Soda Sales. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an amazing 451,712 Monamburg marks, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.5 times as much as the poorest.

Kindergarten teachers with ankle-bracelets are closely supervised by their parole officers, the national sporting identity is represented by a talking burger and a singing smartphone, hospitals fear government fines more than terrorist ransoms, and high-tech infantry rifles automatically reload when the soldier shoots outside the screen of their helmet HUD. Crime is totally unknown. Monamburg's national animal is the stalfin, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Neo-judaism.

Monamburg is ranked 310,507^th in the world and 3,589^th in the West Pacific for Safest, scoring 5.26 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
