The Republic of Montevento is a huge, genial nation, notable for its parental licensing program, smutty television, and daily referendums. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic population of 330 million Monteventanis hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The relatively small, outspoken government prioritizes Industry, with Welfare, Education, and Healthcare also on the agenda, while Spirituality and Defense are ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Città di San Filippo. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 9.8%.

The frighteningly efficient Monteventani economy, worth 30.5 trillion Monteventani Lire a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Book Publishing. Average income is 92,358 Monteventani Lire, with the richest citizens earning 9.5 times as much as the poorest.

Home renovation shows are increasingly popular, party affiliation is just as irrelevant as campaign promises, laser-wielding robots are taking aim at human hearts, and the combined alert sound of a nation simultaneously receiving a text message is a common cause of hearing damage. Crime is relatively low. Montevento's national animal is the Agouti, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Montevento is ranked 33,907^th in the world and 1,309^th in the Rejected Realms for Largest Welfare Programs, scoring 2,159.76 on the Safety Net Mesh Density Rating.
