The Malicious Mechanic of Volstrostia is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Alex with an iron fist, and remarkable for its strictly enforced bedtime, prohibition of alcohol, and ubiquitous missile silos. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 5.896 billion catgirls are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The large, corrupt, moralistic, socially-minded, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, although Law & Order and Administration are also considered important, while Spirituality isn't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Alexandria. The average income tax rate is 83.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient catgirlese economy, worth a remarkable 1,269 trillion Flemmings a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is an enormous, deeply entrenched, broadly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, and Beef-Based Agriculture. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an amazing 215,245 Flemmings, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Political visitors are forced to stop ten paces from Alex's throne, the media seems excessively interested in what Alex is wearing this season, the nation is known abroad for fast food and nothing else, and the nation honors the inventor of the three-wheeled steam-powered catgirlese weed picker. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Volstrostia's national animal is the catgirl, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Malice.

Volstrostia is ranked 9,688th in the world and 14th in The Brotherhood of Malice for Lowest Crime Rates, with 101.7 law-abiding acts per hour.
