The Confederacy of Manic Gotti is a colossal, safe nation, notable for its keen interest in outer space and irreverence towards religion. The hard-working, democratic population of 3.154 billion Manic Gottians hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Education, Defense, and Law & Order. The average income tax rate is 17.2%.

The Manic Gottian economy, worth 172 trillion noodles a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Trout Farming, Book Publishing, and Arms Manufacturing. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 54,577 noodles, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.7 times as much as the poorest.

The military has forsaken terrestrial warfare, cigarettes are dead-cheap, the nation is famous for having one of the world's largest danger noodle hunting institutions, and where there's smoke there's the Manic Gottian Forestry Department. Crime, especially youth-related, is well under control, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Manic Gotti's national animal is the danger noodle, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Manic Gotti is ranked 158,362^nd in the world and 2^nd in Pasta Confederacy for Largest Black Market, with 1.01 trillion Standard Monetary Units.
