The Sleazy Caliphate of Mont-Saint-Aignan is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by Prinz Severinus Von Bibra with an iron fist, and notable for its complete lack of prisons, state-planned economy, and frequent executions. The cynical population of 3.726 billion Trouduculs are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

The large, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Grimmenthal. The average income tax rate is 93.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Mont-Saint-Aignanian economy, worth 578 trillion pesetas a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is an impressive 155,162 pesetas, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Genocide is seen as a topic best avoided in history lessons, Grimmenthal University is said to be the modern-day Tower of Babel, remote-control hang-gliding scarecrows patrol the skies to keep songbirds from leaving the nation's borders, and the national Police Academies have dedicated infant wings. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Mont-Saint-Aignan's national animal is the dead pigeon, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is pedophiles -aka priests- lynching.

Mont-Saint-Aignan is ranked 291,130^th in the world and 370^th in United Kingdom for Highest Disposable Incomes, with 9,620.08 Standard Monetary Units.
