The People's Republic of Malarus is a colossal, safe nation, ruled by Victor Yanukovich with an iron fist, and notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, infamous sell-swords, and frequent executions. The cynical population of 2.672 billion Malarussians 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 medium-sized, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Education, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Kiyev. The average income tax rate is 22.7%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The large but inefficient Malarussian economy, worth 114 trillion Roubles a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Woodchip Exports, and Pizza Delivery. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 42,734 Roubles, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Hiding wrinkles with make-up is illegal, trails to natural wonders are littered with trash from reality film crews, lending money has become a major liability, and hostage-takers offer loyalty scheme points for prompt payment. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Malarus's national animal is the Bear, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Orthodox Christianity.

Malarus is ranked 276,353^rd in the world and 14^th in Suvo for Highest Food Quality, scoring 7.55 on the Meeshlin-Starr Index.
