The Forgotten Kingdoms of Monarch Gardens is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by Yaroslav Q with a fair hand, and notable for its deadly medical pandemics, unlimited-speed roads, and complete lack of prisons. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic, humorless population of 4.961 billion Voyaqim are effectively ruled by a group of massive corporations, who run for political office and provide their well-off citizens with world-class goods and services. Their poorer citizens, however, are mostly starving to death while being urged to go out and get real jobs. The populace has reasonably extensive civil rights, although these are mostly aimed at allowing them to buy whatever they like.
The minute, corrupt, pro-business government, or what there is of one, prioritizes Industry, with Defense, Education, and Administration also on the agenda, while Law & Order and Environment aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Holovos. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 1.6%.
The frighteningly efficient Voyaqiy economy, worth 986 trillion Crowns a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Retail industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Arms Manufacturing, and Soda Sales. Average income is an impressive 198,753 Crowns, but there is an enormous disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 1,172,537 per year while the poor average 15,623, a ratio of 75.1 to 1.
Cheap and tasteless vegetables flood the markets, the saying 'break a leg' is now taken literally, increasing inclusiveness is a sign of the times, and government ministers have eclectic tastes in curtains. Crime, especially youth-related, is all-pervasive, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Monarch Gardens's national animal is the Immortal Butterfly, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution.
Monarch Gardens is ranked 249,025th in the world and 38th in Coldonia for Most Income Equality, scoring 1.33 on the Marx-Engels Emancipation Scale.
