The Republic of Malandsopia is a colossal, orderly nation, notable for its absence of drug laws and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-working, cynical population of 6.5 billion Malandsopians enjoy great individual freedoms in everything except elections, which, where they exist at all, are populist shams for a dictatorship government that has no intention of ever giving up power.

The tiny, liberal, pro-business, well-organized government prioritizes Law & Order, although Defense, Healthcare, and Welfare are also considered important, while International Aid and Spirituality receive no funds. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 7.9%.

The strong Malandsopian economy, worth 333 trillion sands a year, is led by the Gambling industry, with significant contributions from Pizza Delivery, Woodchip Exports, and Basket Weaving. Average income is 51,241 sands, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 330,253 per year while the poor average 3,212, a ratio of 102 to 1.

Crime is a serious problem. Malandsopia's national animal is the scarab, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

Malandsopia is ranked 50,774^th in the world and 235^th in Hispano Germanic Alliance for Largest Timber Woodchipping Industry, scoring 5,497.3 on the Tasmanian Pulp Environmental Export Index.
