The Rat of Malphe is a gargantuan, genial nation, ruled by Malphe Vytherov-Skollvaldr with an even hand, and renowned for its rum-swilling pirates, national health service, and sprawling nuclear power plants. The compassionate population of 16.845 billion Rats enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The medium-sized, liberal government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Education, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Horsonopile. The average income tax rate is 71.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Rodentine economy, worth a remarkable 2,673 trillion Malphaen Denarii a year, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Cheese Exports. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 158,738 Malphaen Denarii, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.4 times as much as the poorest.

Patriots insist that size does matter, insanely good theatre productions face government censorship, grade school teachers mark homework with red "CITATION NEEDED" stamps, and Malphe Vytherov-Skollvaldr spends weekends doing the laundry of foreign leaders. Crime is totally unknown. Malphe's national animal is the Desert Woodrat, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Horned Rat.

Malphe is ranked 267,945th in the world and 5,908th in The North Pacific for Most Stationary, with 11.93243680768 days.
