The Empire of Mandro is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, notable for its absence of drug laws and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 25.15 billion Mandroans live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.

The relatively small, liberal, pro-business, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Welfare, and Healthcare. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 8.4%.

The strong Mandroan economy, worth a remarkable 1,462 trillion Dollars a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Trout Farming industry, with major contributions from Beef-Based Agriculture, Basket Weaving, and Book Publishing. Average income is 58,148 Dollars, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 395,342 per year while the poor average 3,124, a ratio of 126 to 1.

Crime is a serious problem, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Mandro's national animal is the snake, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Mandro is ranked 23,130^th in the world and 5^th in Anarchy for Largest Trout Fishing Sector, scoring 6,196.4 on the Nemo Depletion Efficiency Index.
