The Kingdom of Greater Manila is a huge, efficient nation, notable for its irreverence towards religion, hatred of cheese, and absence of drug laws. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 468 million Greater Manilans enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The relatively small, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Welfare, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of National Capital Region. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 13.0%.

The powerhouse Greater Manilan economy, worth 32.2 trillion Pesos a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Soda Sales industry, with significant contributions from Basket Weaving, Gambling, and Automobile Manufacturing. Average income is 68,714 Pesos, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 352,262 per year while the poor average 7,350, a ratio of 47.9 to 1.

Trust-fund babies line up for places in community college, costumed characters wearing Maxtopian Grass leaves remind citizens that the government now sells the green stuff, millions are awarded in damages for bad haircuts, and Greater Manila recently decided against having a capital city. Crime, especially youth-related, is moderate, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Greater Manila's national animal is the Carabao, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

Greater Manila is ranked 98,881st in the world and 1,981st in The North Pacific for Most Primitive, scoring -12.25 on the Scary Big Number Scale.
