The Republic of Manticore utopia is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by Leader with a fair hand, and renowned for its unlimited-speed roads, ubiquitous missile silos, and multi-spousal wedding ceremonies. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic, cheerful population of 10.227 billion Manticore utopians hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The tiny, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Industry, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Babylon. Income tax is unheard of.

The frighteningly efficient Manticore utopian economy, worth a remarkable 3,522 trillion manticore meticals a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Retail, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is an amazing 344,405 manticore meticals, with the richest citizens earning 5.0 times as much as the poorest.

Police officers often head to work wearing onesies and fluffy pink bunny-slippers, the number of students attending university has reached a record high, bike rage is all the rage, and families waiting for delayed pipe installations hope daily for rain. Crime, especially youth-related, is a serious problem, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Manticore utopia's national animal is the Vampire, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Agnosticism.

Manticore utopia is ranked 3,311^th in the world and 192^nd in The North Pacific for Most Developed, scoring 95.78 on the Human Development Index.
