The Mansion of Motivated Mallard is a gargantuan, orderly nation, ruled by Arthur Mullard with an iron fist, and notable for its parental licensing program, otherworldly petting zoo, and pith helmet sales. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 16.788 billion Motivated Mallardians are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Administration, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Mullard. The average income tax rate is 63.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Motivated Mallardian economy, worth a remarkable 3,553 trillion Quacks a year, is fairly diversified and mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Arms Manufacturing, Uranium Mining, Information Technology, and Woodchip Exports. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 211,655 Quacks, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.1 times as much as the poorest.

Adulthood begins with the creation of an email account, the new iVote app allows representatives to vote on legislation by launching ill-tempered birds and matching candies, if you go into the woods today you're sure of a big surprise, and the sick and dying are locked in their homes with a red "X" painted on the front door. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Motivated Mallard's national animal is the Pintail, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Birding.
