The Grand Duchy of Malbaracca is a large, environmentally stunning nation, remarkable for its museums and concert halls, keen interest in outer space, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate population of 133 million Baraccanes enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The medium-sized, liberal government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Welfare. The average income tax rate is 35.2%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The thriving Baraccan economy, worth 10.7 trillion racs a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Beef-Based Agriculture, Book Publishing, and Furniture Restoration. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 80,685 racs, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.9 times as much as the poorest.

Military funding has been stripped back, debates on whether toilet seats should be left up or down are increasingly commonplace, the government says that Possession is nine-tenths of the Lore, and party leaders aid loyal supporters in opposition strongholds with a simple "Good luck" message. Crime is totally unknown. Malbaracca's national animal is the eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Malbaracca is ranked 300,129^th in the world and 2,949^th in The North Pacific for Largest Populations, with 133 million capita.
