The Pig Monkey Pokemon of Mankey is a massive, cultured nation, remarkable for its vat-grown people, enslaved workforce, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, humorless, devout population of 3.418 billion Mankeyians 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, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Administration, and Law & Order. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 69.8%.

The frighteningly efficient Mankeyian economy, worth 523 trillion tugriks a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a large, well-organized black market in Arms Manufacturing, Retail, Information Technology, and Beef-Based Agriculture. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an impressive 153,161 tugriks, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 568,199 per year while the poor average 29,040, a ratio of 19.6 to 1.

Leader's exquisite office door is replaced monthly due to angry petitioners, laser-wielding robots are taking aim at human hearts, children as young as six shock their parents by coming out of the closet, and ambitious "businessmen" use their children to sell and advertise their products. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Mankey's national animal is the dodo, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Mankey is ranked 324,690th in the world and 1,960th in Herta Space Station for Nicest Citizens, with 0.49 average smiles per day.
