The Constitutional Monarchy of Malkara is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by Franklin Carlos with an even hand, and renowned for its anti-smoking policies, enforced nudity, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, cheerful, devout population of 2.343 billion Malkarans are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Harned. The average income tax rate is 95.1%.

The frighteningly efficient Malkaran economy, worth 443 trillion Malkoes a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Uranium Mining, and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 189,105 Malkoes, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

CEOs and corporate executives are frequently found striking for better stock options, politicians can be condescending (which by the way means "showing an attitude of patronising superiority"), conscripts often volunteer for a second tour of duty so they can get a ticket to next year's Army Revue, and antique comic book collectors are disappointed to hear that their treasures are worth exactly as little as their mothers said they were. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Malkara's national animal is the Urso Azul, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Cristianismo Solar.

Malkara is ranked 5,350^th in the world and 1^st in The Trident Alliance for Safest, scoring 127.83 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
