The City of Navotas is a mammoth, socially progressive nation, remarkable for its irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 8.247 billion Navoteño are effectively ruled by a group of massive corporations, who run for political office and provide their well-off citizens with world-class goods and services. Their poorer citizens, however, are mostly starving to death while being urged to go out and get real jobs. The populace has reasonably extensive civil rights, although these are mostly aimed at allowing them to buy whatever they like.

The minute, pro-business government, or what there is of one, juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Law & Order. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 5.8%.

The thriving Navoteño economy, worth 518 trillion pesos 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 Book Publishing, Furniture Restoration, and Basket Weaving. Average income is 62,834 pesos, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 222,413 per year while the poor average 12,816, a ratio of 17.4 to 1.

Crime is a serious problem, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Navotas's national animal is the eagle, which can occasionally be seen dodging aircraft in the nation's cities.

Navotas is ranked 262,240^th in the world and 15,155^th in Balder for Safest, scoring 23.69 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
