Introduction
The Royal Kingdom of Maltropia is a massive, devout nation, ruled by King Brendan I with an even hand, and renowned for its powerful navy. Its compassionate, hard-working, intelligent population of 6.43 billion are governed by a benevolent monarchy which concentrates mainly on Defence, with Education and Religion & Spirituality as secondary priorities. The populace enjoys a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct. The government meets daily to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Corcaigh Nua. Citizens pay no form of income tax to the state, though religious contributions are encouraged. The economy is the private sector, which itself is led by the Information Technology amd Arms Manufacturing industries, followed closely by rapidly expanding Transport and Tourism sectors.
The nation's numerous and massive battleships are often mistaken for islands, an error which becomes fatal when Maltropia's frequent sea-lane closures cause any approach of a warship to be met with destruction. Crime is a growing problem, and has been increasing due to cuts in social welfare and despite progressive social policies in education. Privatisation of the state's prisons has, fortunately, slowed this growth. Maltropia's national animal is the Snapping Turtle, which recently saw a decline in numbers due to widespread deforestation, but has since recovered. The national religion is Roman Catholicism, and the currency is the Maltropian Ducat (MD€).
