The Romantic Republic of Malus Ordo is a colossal, orderly nation, renowned for its stringent health and safety legislation. The cynical population of 4.767 billion Malus Ordoans are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The medium-sized, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Welfare. The average income tax rate is 27.8%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The large but sluggish Malus Ordoan economy, worth 107 trillion florins a year, is quite specialized and dominated by the Trout Farming industry, with significant contributions from Soda Sales, Book Publishing, and Information Technology. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 22,640 florins, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Crime is almost non-existent, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Malus Ordo's national animal is the panther.

Malus Ordo is ranked 220,529^th in the world and 3^rd in Land of Sigma for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 229.62 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
