The Higher Empire of Workers Mancunia is a colossal, socially progressive nation, ruled by Emperor Sans The Benevolent with an iron fist, and renowned for its otherworldly petting zoo, unlimited-speed roads, and compulsory military service. The hard-nosed, cynical, cheerful population of 7.513 billion Mancunians are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

The large, corrupt, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, although Education, Healthcare, and Administration are also considered important. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of St Sansberg. The average income tax rate is 91.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Mancunian economy, worth a remarkable 1,278 trillion Dong a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Arms Manufacturing, and Book Publishing. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 170,133 Dong, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

News editors who eschew the state-approved superlatives for describing Emperor Sans The Benevolent tend to disappear, the government is denying reports that criminals injected with experimental drugs have turned into monstrous supervillains, state-sanctioned torture is okay so long as there's no icky blood, and the military sees national borders more as guidelines than absolutes. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Workers Mancunia's national animal is the Cade, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Sansism.

Workers Mancunia is ranked 72,435^th in the world and 47^th in Karma for Largest Populations, with 7.51 billion capita.
