The Constitutional Monarchy of Minich is a huge, cultured nation, notable for its flagrant waste-dumping, avowedly heterosexual populace, and compulsory military service. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 557 million Minichians enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Education, and Welfare. The average income tax rate is 12.3%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The Minichian economy, worth 28.6 trillion pratas a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Beef-Based Agriculture industry, with major contributions from Basket Weaving, Woodchip Exports, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. Average income is 51,295 pratas, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.1 times as much as the poorest.

Police officers often conceal their identities to safeguard against public complaints, the judicial branch is strongly influenced by major corporations, corrupt industrial practices are spreading like a plague, and Leader's told that love often manifests itself through homicidal four-lettered litanies. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Minich's national animal is the fox, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Minich is ranked 189,557^th in the world and 7,970^th in The North Pacific for Most Extreme, scoring 10.09 on the Paul-Nader Subjective Decentrality Index.
