The Republic of Malmo 2013 is a mammoth, safe nation, remarkable for its stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 8.353 billion Malmo 2013ians are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The medium-sized, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Malmö. The average income tax rate is 32.4%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The large but sluggish Malmo 2013ian economy, worth 162 trillion guilders a year, is quite specialized and led by the Cheese Exports industry, with major contributions from Soda Sales, Tourism, and Book Publishing. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 19,485 guilders, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

A major religion has been named as Malmo 2013's national religion, Leader has just been declared ruler of Malmo 2013 in an international press conference, it is illegal for a parent to tell a child to stop eating their boogers, and everyone apparently sends Leader hair-filled lockets, offers to die heroically, and poetic desires to co-parent a child. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Malmo 2013's national animal is the swan.

Malmo 2013 is ranked 224,887^th in the world and 2^nd in 00 00 for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 235.57 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
