The Mittelanean Diktoriat of Minuda is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Alex Karpo with an even hand, and renowned for its ubiquitous missile silos, complete lack of prisons, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, humorless population of 12.244 billion Minudians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The medium-sized, corrupt government prioritizes Defense, although Education, Industry, and Law & Order are also considered important, while Spirituality isn't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Cohorse. The average income tax rate is 86.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Minudian economy, worth a remarkable 2,793 trillion Metalvian Dollars a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Retail, and Uranium Mining. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an amazing 228,162 Metalvian Dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.5 times as much as the poorest.

The Snapgram channel "Embarrassing Baby Alex Karpo Pics" has made Alex Karpo's mom a celebrity, the atmosphere in Minudian boardrooms is turning more gay, internet sites are legally unable to stop their users from posting pornography, and internet ads promising "hot singles in your area" are even less accurate than they used to be. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Minuda's national animal is the Orca, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Börk Sect.

Minuda is ranked 28,332nd in the world and 22nd in Saint Helene for Highest Food Quality, scoring 75.5 on the Meeshlin-Starr Index.
