The Realm of Friendly Monsters is a massive, safe nation, ruled by Maximillion Monsters with an iron fist, and remarkable for its national health service. Its hard-nosed, cynical population of 4.876 billion are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent, corrupt government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defence, and Education. It meets every day to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Moon star city. The average income tax rate is 100%. Private enterprise is illegal, but for those in the know there is a slick and highly efficient black market in Uranium Mining.

Door-to-door salesmen are frequently beaten up by 'vigilantes', college students make ends meet by selling their kidneys, roads are often attended by round-the-clock construction crews, and a large-scale revitalization of the education system is underway. Crime -- especially youth-related -- is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Friendly Monsters's national animal is the bat, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, its national religion is Scarism, and its currency is the scares.

Friendly Monsters is ranked 4th in The Skaian Initiative and 13,243rd in the world for Most Influential, scoring 29 on the Soft Power Disbursement Rating.
