The Best Christmas Football Club of Mancheseva City is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Pep Guardiola with a fair hand, and renowned for its state-planned economy, multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 5.731 billion Cityzens are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The large, socially-minded, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Etihad Stadium. The average income tax rate is 96.6%.

The frighteningly efficient Cityzen economy, worth 983 trillion Sterlings a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is dominated by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Retail. Average income is an impressive 171,653 Sterlings, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Country folk are sent to obligatory boarding schools to learn how to be civilized, the Etihad Stadium Women's Prison Choir now has a baritone section, board shorts have replaced board rooms, and schoolboys who turn to watch pretty girls go by are given detention. Crime is totally unknown. Mancheseva City's national animal is the sloth, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Agnosticism.

Mancheseva City is ranked 272,986^th in the world and 1,047^th in Europeia for Most Patriotic, with 0.35 flags saluted per person per day.
