The Democratic Republic of Malkaestan is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by President Auvoc with an iron fist, and remarkable for its pith helmet sales, frequent executions, and restrictive gun laws. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless population of 4.271 billion Malkaestanis are ruled with an iron fist by the corrupt, dictatorship government, which oppresses anyone who isn't on the board of a Fortune 500 company. Large corporations tend to be above the law, and use their financial clout to gain ever-increasing government benefits at the expense of the poor and unemployed.

The relatively small, corrupt, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, although Industry, Law & Order, and Administration are also considered important, while International Aid and Welfare aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of New Misrior. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 16.9%.

The frighteningly efficient Malkaestani economy, worth 471 trillion Mikoes a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Retail industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Uranium Mining, and Automobile Manufacturing. Black market activity is notable. Average income is an impressive 110,286 Mikoes, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 756,733 per year while the poor average 5,761, a ratio of 131 to 1.

All footpaths have tollbooths, cutting-edge missile systems are being retrofitted to twin-prop air force biplanes, an increasing number of citizens believe the world is flat, and the military conducts 'training exercises' in prisons. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force. Malkaestan's national animal is the Mikousian Crocodile, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to heavy metals seepage into national waterways.

Malkaestan is ranked 319,818th in the world and 18th in 2022 RP Region for Nicest Citizens, with 0.59 average smiles per day.
