The Federal Republic of Ministanopolis is a colossal, safe nation, ruled by John Ellsbury with a fair hand, and renowned for its museums and concert halls, smutty television, and irreverence towards religion. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 7.773 billion Ministanopolites hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The relatively small, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Strekhin. The average income tax rate is 19.5%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Ministanopolisian economy, worth a remarkable 1,895 trillion minis a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Average income is an amazing 243,900 minis, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.9 times as much as the poorest.

Just as students finish their homework it's time for school, the government subsidises medicines of mass destruction, sniffer dogs check train passengers for body odour, and prime real estate is devoted to wind farms and solar energy generators. Crime is totally unknown. Ministanopolis's national animal is the thrush, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Ministanopolis is ranked 1,594^th in the world and 1^st in Miniland for Safest, scoring 152.86 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
