The Malaransel of Cyrod is a titanic, orderly nation, ruled by Malaran Adaal with an iron fist, and renowned for its multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, unlimited-speed roads, and free-roaming dinosaurs. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless, devout population of 17.702 billion Saliache are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The relatively small, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, with Industry also on the agenda, while Environment and Social Policy aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Aldmalada. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 77.1%.

The frighteningly efficient Saliache economy, worth an astonishing 13,007 trillion Mallaris a year, is broadly diversified and mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Uranium Mining, and Automobile Manufacturing. Average income is a breathtaking 734,780 Mallaris, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 2,197,772 per year while the poor average 192,123, a ratio of 11.4 to 1.

Malaran Adaal's military council has been nicknamed 'The Knights of the Rotund Table', a shocking number of estate planners are beneficiaries of their clients' wills, when flight control tells pilots to alter course the usual reply is "No, YOU move!", and it takes a village to catch a criminal. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, despite the fact that it is difficult to make it through a day without breaking one of the country's many laws. Cyrod's national animal is the Mora, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Ilpenada.

Cyrod is ranked 30th in the world and 2nd in The Alliance of Dictators for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring 37,480.44 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
