The Federal Republic of Malnic is a mammoth, orderly nation, remarkable for its stringent health and safety legislation. The cynical population of 6.247 billion Malnicians 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, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 42.7%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The large but sluggish Malnician economy, worth 108 trillion rubledollars a year, is led by the Trout Farming industry, with major contributions from Cheese Exports, Information Technology, and Furniture Restoration. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 17,334 rubledollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Malnic's national animal is the hawk.

Malnic is ranked 197,730^th in the world and 1^st in Salusa secundus for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 307.31 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
