The Queendom of Manila-Central is a mammoth, orderly nation, ruled by Lady Anonymous with an iron fist, and renowned for its museums and concert halls, multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, and devotion to social welfare. The hard-nosed, cynical, devout population of 8.345 billion Europans are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The medium-sized, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Industry, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Vash the Stampede City. The average income tax rate is 98.9%.

The frighteningly efficient Europan economy, worth a remarkable 4,961 trillion euros a year, is broadly diversified and mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Information Technology, Arms Manufacturing, Tourism, and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is a breathtaking 594,543 euros, with the richest citizens earning 8.9 times as much as the poorest.

Failed genetic experiments wreak havoc as they roam the countryside, the GPS-tracked jogging routes of military personnel are a possible security risk, a light facial coating of soot is seen as the mark of an honest and hardworking man, and even the nation's brussel sprouts are delicious and nutritious. Crime is totally unknown. Manila-Central's national animal is the hen, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Paganism.

Manila-Central is ranked 362^nd in the world and 1^st in Heaven for Highest Average Incomes, with 594,543.61 Standard Monetary Units.
