The Kingdom of Greater Manila is a huge, efficient nation, renowned for its flagrant waste-dumping, enslaved workforce, and absence of drug laws. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 553 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 medium-sized, 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. The average income tax rate is 18.7%.

The thriving Greater Manilan economy, worth 34.9 trillion Pesos a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Soda Sales industry, with significant contributions from Basket Weaving, Automobile Manufacturing, and Information Technology. Average income is 63,081 Pesos, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.9 times as much as the poorest.

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 is well under control. 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 211,795^th in the world and 4,860^th in The North Pacific for Most Cheerful Citizens, with 49.5 Percentage Of Water Glasses Perceived Half-Full.
