The Best Zombie Football Club of Mancheseva City is a massive, safe nation, ruled by Pep Guardiola with a fair hand, and remarkable for its punitive income tax rates, compulsory gun ownership, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic population of 3.264 billion Cityzens enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The large, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Etihad Stadium. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 86.6%.

The frighteningly efficient Cityzen economy, worth 438 trillion Sterlings a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is dominated by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Retail, and Book Publishing. Average income is an impressive 134,371 Sterlings, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 628,631 per year while the poor average 17,158, a ratio of 36.6 to 1.

Doctors ask for written consent before making eye contact with patients, the official Cityzen Phrase Book weighs as much as a small child, saying "don't do anything that Pep Guardiola wouldn't do" doesn't exclude a great deal, and scientists regularly clone human beings for research purposes. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Mancheseva City's national animal is the sloth, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Agnosticism.

Mancheseva City is ranked 190,612^th in the world and 644^th in Europeia for Most Extreme, scoring 9.97 on the Paul-Nader Subjective Decentrality Index.
