Malutia Lusia Cialty

Malusia Lusia Cialty (although most people call him MLC for short) is the regional interpreter for Norse.

The Stalinist-Maoist State Union of Malutia Lusia Cialty is a massive, genial nation, ruled by General of State Monika Mecika with an even hand, and renowned for its pith helmet sales, compulsory military service, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate population of 1.748 billion MalLuCians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent, socially-minded government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Education, Welfare, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Spero. The average income tax rate is 96.6%.

The Malutia Lusia Cialtyian economy, worth 143 trillion Chenies a year, is driven almost entirely by government activity, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is extremely specialized, is mostly made up of the Book Publishing industry, with significant contributions from Cheese Exports. State-owned companies are the norm. Average income is 82,328 Chenies, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Children listen incredulously when their grandparents explain what a "running river" is, citizens wishing to be parents must undertake a series of gruelling tests to evaluate their capabilities, elevator music has been replaced by thrash metal played at maximum volume, and there's a shortage of swinging hot spots as land development grinds to a halt. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Malutia Lusia Cialty's national animal is the Mountain Fox, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.
