The Disputed Territories of Macross City is a gargantuan, orderly nation, renowned for its avowedly heterosexual populace, ubiquitous missile silos, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 18.808 billion Macross Cityians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The relatively small, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government is dominated by the Department of Defense, with Law & Order and Education also on the agenda, while Social Policy and Spirituality receive no funds. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 6.6%.

The powerhouse Macross Cityian economy, worth a remarkable 2,337 trillion Protoculture Pieces a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Retail, and Uranium Mining. Black market activity is frequent. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 124,258 Protoculture Pieces, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 440,613 per year while the poor average 25,277, a ratio of 17.4 to 1.

Fixing attendance at women's matches is a matter of "when they go low, we go high... funding", Rupert Bear is considered to be the most risqué TV programme in Macross City, the nation's new currency features full-length portraits of Leader in ermine and velvet garb, and any body part that can be cut off a person is no longer considered to be their property. Crime, especially youth-related, is well under control, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Macross City's national animal is the Tuna, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Macross City is ranked 96,977th in the world and 26th in Anime for Most Stationary, with 461.82621137548 days.
