The Malleability of Plastic Man is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, ruled by Patrick O'Brian with an even hand, and notable for its compulsory military service, frequent executions, and absence of drug laws. The hard-nosed, hard-working population of 22.78 billion Woozie Winks 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 medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Welfare, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Capitol City. The average income tax rate is 29.2%.

The strong Woozie Winks economy, worth a remarkable 1,156 trillion semolians a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Trout Farming industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Cheese Exports, and Tourism. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 50,771 semolians, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.1 times as much as the poorest.

The national guard is mobilized whenever a mother gets separated from her child at the mall, drunk drivers are sent to rehabilitation paid for by the government, more and more students are taking up a career in medicine, and immigrant herding has become a national pastime. Crime is moderate, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Plastic Man's national animal is the squid and its national religion is Batman.

Plastic Man is ranked 77,973^rd in the world and 3^rd in Justice League for Nudest, with 184.25 cheeks per square mile.
