The Epic Land of Manhat is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Luna with an even hand, and remarkable for its museums and concert halls, parental licensing program, and anti-smoking policies. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic, cheerful population of 28.241 billion Manhatians 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 relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of New Manhat. The average income tax rate is 42.0%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Manhatian economy, worth a remarkable 8,779 trillion credits a year, is quite specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Retail. Average income is an amazing 310,885 credits, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Luna's office is running a trade deficit of midnight oil, only adults may purchase violent video games, an epidemic of unpopped kernels causes movie goers to gnash their teeth, and prisoners due for execution often use their final statement to complain about soggy bread rolls. Crime is totally unknown. Manhat's national animal is the manticore, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Lunaism.

Manhat is ranked 114,184^th in the world and 3,172^nd in The North Pacific for Highest Foreign Aid Spending, scoring 151.32 on the Clooney Contribution Index.
