The Federal Monarchy of Mallansaia is a massive, socially progressive nation, ruled by D Pedro da Maconharia e Laltroz with an even hand, and notable for its enslaved workforce, smutty television, and sprawling nuclear power plants. The hard-nosed, hard-working population of 1.088 billion Mallansaians enjoy some of the most opulent lifestyles in the region, unless they are unemployed or working-class, in which case they are variously starving to death or crippled by easily preventable diseases.

The relatively small, corrupt, pro-business government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Defense, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Salisbury. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 16.2%.

The frighteningly efficient Rhodesian-Mallansaian economy, worth 180 trillion Mallas Royalis a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Retail, Arms Manufacturing, and Soda Sales. Black market activity is frequent. Average income is an impressive 165,844 Mallas Royalis, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 1,111,725 per year while the poor average 9,296, a ratio of 119 to 1.

Arms manufacturers and mild-mannered journalists have been outed as superheroes, fistfighting vigilantes tend to suffer a lot of gunshot wounds, grocery store cereal aisles resemble a Piet Mondrian work, and people often feel unbalanced by their daily commute. Crime, especially youth-related, is a major problem, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Mallansaia's national animal is the Leão Mallansaio, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Maçonaria.

Mallansaia is ranked 20,756^th in the world and 16^th in Flanelistan for Most Corrupt Governments, with 97.82 kickbacks per hour.
