When the tiny nation of Freedonia goes bankrupt, its wealthy benefactor, Mrs. Teasdale, insists that the wacky Rufus T. Firefly become the country's president. Sensing a weakness in leadership, the bordering nation of Sylvania sends in the spies Pinky and Chicolini to set the stage for a revolution. As Firefly clashes with the Sylvanian ambassador, plenty of mayhem ensues, and the countries verge on all-out war.
