The Borderlands of Malfoid is a tiny, pleasant nation, notable for its burgeoning tiger population. The hard-working population of 18 million Malfoidians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Welfare. The average income tax rate is 16.2%.

The Malfoidian economy, worth 838 billion guilders a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Soda Sales, and Basket Weaving. Average income is 46,576 guilders, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.6 times as much as the poorest.

Crime is relatively low, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Malfoid's national animal is the tiger.

Malfoid is ranked 229,180^th in the world and 580^th in Horizon for Most Compassionate Citizens, scoring 42 on the Kitten Softness Rating.
