The Galactic Empire of Nova Montron is a gargantuan, genial nation, ruled by Emperor Zet with a fair hand, and notable for its keen interest in outer space, irreverence towards religion, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 14.425 billion Zetanoose enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The large, liberal government prioritizes Education, although Healthcare, Environment, and Administration are also considered important, while Spirituality is ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Ormon. The average income tax rate is 98.4%.

The frighteningly efficient Zetanoose economy, worth a remarkable 3,118 trillion Credits a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism and Book Publishing. Average income is an amazing 216,196 Credits, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Elections have become procedural nightmares due to voters persistently rejecting candidates, space has been brought down to earth with constellations of cancer cases across Nova Montron, treason is relative, and grinding bureaucracy has the international wheels of justice turning slowly. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Nova Montron's national animal is the Zulum, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Nova Montron is ranked 246,439^th in the world and 4,508^th in the South Pacific for Largest Cheese Export Sector, scoring -6.45 on the Mozzarella Productivity Index.
