The Rainbow Empire of Her Malue is a colossal, genial nation, ruled by Emperor Edward with an even hand, and notable for its unlimited-speed roads, punitive income tax rates, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 7.037 billion Her Malueans enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The enormous, liberal government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Oraclia. The average income tax rate is 96.5%.

The frighteningly efficient Her Maluean economy, worth a remarkable 1,060 trillion Walis a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism and Book Publishing. Average income is an impressive 150,723 Walis, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Arguments about toilet seats being left up or down get surprisingly heated, autocrats are persona non grata, snap elections are called over every minor impasse, and excessive wheelchair ramps on government buildings have been compared to theme park attractions. Crime is totally unknown. Her Malue's national animal is the Phoenix, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Her Malue is ranked 315,440^th in the world and 5,144^th in The East Pacific for Largest Furniture Restoration Industry, scoring -16.31 on the Spitz-Pollish Productivity Index.
