The Shogunate of Mononobe is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Shogun Mononobe no Futo with an even hand, and notable for its daily referendums, pith helmet sales, and infamous sell-swords. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 22.587 billion Mononobes enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Education, Industry, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Saint Toyosatomimi. The average income tax rate is 99.0%.

The frighteningly efficient Mononobe economy, worth a remarkable 4,879 trillion Futo Yen a year, is quite specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 216,051 Futo Yen, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Coffee cups have grown in size to accommodate the huge ingredients list, only the richest get to see out of their windows, scaffolding is built around scaffolding to give safe access, and newspapers are running a front-page picture of Shogun Mononobe no Futo holding a crowbar and standing over a bloodied stockbroker. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Mononobe's national animal is the Crow, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Taoism.

Mononobe is ranked 16,478^th in the world and 3^rd in Gensokyo for Most Valuable International Artwork, with zero Bank.
