The Imperial Empire of Maleficenca is a colossal, safe nation, ruled by Supreme Emperor Dialec with an iron fist, and remarkable for its pith helmet sales, anti-smoking policies, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, cynical, devout population of 6.064 billion Starsmen are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The enormous government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Moors City. The average income tax rate is 90.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Starsman economy, worth 572 trillion Mor'smics a year, is quite specialized and led by the Book Publishing industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, and Pizza Delivery. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 94,410 Mor'smics, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The media only bothers polling the three most exclusive country clubs in the nation, getting an autograph has become harder than ever, when shaking hands with foreign leaders Supreme Emperor Dialec wears an armoured gauntlet, and billions of Mor'smics are being blown on orbital weapons development. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Maleficenca's national animal is the Dragon, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Christianity.

Maleficenca is ranked 100,252^nd in the world and 5,392^nd in Lazarus for Most Valuable International Artwork, with zero Bank.
