The Federal Republic of Maynila is a colossal, safe nation, remarkable for its museums and concert halls, compulsory military service, and ubiquitous missile silos. The hard-nosed, democratic population of 8.993 billion Manileñoes are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Tondo. The average income tax rate is 95.9%.

The frighteningly efficient Maynilan economy, worth a remarkable 1,225 trillion Pisoes a year, is highly specialized and led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Arms Manufacturing, and Information Technology. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 136,316 Pisoes, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Candidates make campaign speeches at the funerals of former rivals, a positive pregnancy test doubles as a visa, RPG fans reminisce fondly about when people thought they were evil and dangerous rather than geeky and socially inept, and what goes down must come up. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Maynila's national animal is the Tarsier, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Maynila is ranked 5,902^nd in the world and 347^th in Lazarus for Lowest Crime Rates, with 112.44 law-abiding acts per hour.
