The Fiefdom of Malal is a mammoth, pleasant nation, remarkable for its burgeoning demon population. The hard-working population of 6.533 billion Malalians 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 Defense, Law & Order, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 20.2%.

The Malalian economy, worth 276 trillion souls a year, is led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Cheese Exports, Woodchip Exports, and Soda Sales. Average income is 42,249 souls, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.6 times as much as the poorest.

Crime is relatively low, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Malal's national animal is the demon, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

Malal is ranked 36,417^th in the world and 6^th in Paperwork for Largest Cheese Export Sector, scoring 5,075.03 on the Mozzarella Productivity Index.
