Nation/Monteverdi

The Democratic Republic of Monteverdi is a huge, genial nation, remarkable for its frequent executions, irreverence towards religion, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic population of 327 million Monteverdians hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Education, Welfare, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Corelli. The average income tax rate is 63.2%.

The all-consuming Monteverdian economy, worth 28.3 trillion Monteverdian Dollars a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Door-to-door Insurance Sales, and Retail. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 86,677 Monteverdian Dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.2 times as much as the poorest.
