The Noocratic Republic of Mally Piznoopia is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by Zeno of Citium with an even hand, and notable for its ubiquitous missile silos, otherworldly petting zoo, and absence of drug laws. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic population of 5.019 billion freethinkers have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Industry, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Alexandria. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 83.9%.

The frighteningly efficient Piznoopian economy, worth a remarkable 1,158 trillion Pizns a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Arms Manufacturing, and Book Publishing. Average income is an amazing 230,772 Pizns, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 673,197 per year while the poor average 62,508, a ratio of 10.8 to 1.

Hospitals are amongst the best-funded in the region, the nation's interest in space is at an all-time high while interest in saving the planet is at an all-time low, major boxing matches are held in government buildings, and visiting the best Piznoopian restaurants requires keeping a visa on file. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Mally Piznoopia's national animal is the Great Blue Heron, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Stoicism.
