The Principality of Maleno is a colossal, cultured nation, ruled by Philippe I with an even hand, and notable for its museums and concert halls, pith helmet sales, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic population of 8.16 billion Malenoans have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The medium-sized, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Healthcare, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of TBA. The average income tax rate is 60.9%.

The frighteningly efficient Malenoan economy, worth a remarkable 1,317 trillion Malenoan Dollars a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Retail, and Book Publishing. Average income is an impressive 161,404 Malenoan Dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.3 times as much as the poorest.

Retirement homes are filled with foreign war criminals, police officers that upset their bosses get assigned to 24 hour stakeouts of bike sheds, friendly fire incidents usually result in severe burns, and beatboxing has replaced the 'Wilhelm scream' as the nation's most popular sound effect. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Maleno's national animal is the Red Fox, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Maleno is ranked 26,204^th in the world and 35^th in Karma for Lowest Crime Rates, with 85.12 law-abiding acts per hour.
