The Democratic States of Manyspeak is a huge, safe nation, notable for its irreverence towards religion and hatred of cheese. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 519 million Manyspeakians are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The large, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Orwellia. The average income tax rate is 41.0%.

The Manyspeakian economy, worth 22.6 trillion marks a year, is quite specialized and mostly made up of the Trout Farming industry, with significant contributions from Furniture Restoration, Door-to-door Insurance Sales, and Woodchip Exports. Average income is 43,638 marks, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.6 times as much as the poorest.

Dynamite sales and concert audiences are booming, the Violetist community celebrates bombshells being dropped on Manyspeak, ironic death by tasering is on the rise amongst door-to-door taser salesmen, and it is believed that belligerence is a passing phase foreign leaders will soon outgrow. Crime, especially youth-related, is almost non-existent, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Manyspeak's national animal is the parrot, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Manyspeak is ranked 127,500^th in the world and 22^nd in Surpridom of the Left for Safest, scoring 71.95 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
