The Dictatorship of Minitrue is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, remarkable for its ubiquitous missile silos, free-roaming dinosaurs, and ritual sacrifices. The cynical, devout population of 2.878 billion Minitrueans are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The large, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Industry. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 59.4%.

The powerhouse Minitruean economy, worth 183 trillion Dollars a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a slick, highly efficient, quite specialized black market in Information Technology, Tourism, Woodchip Exports, and Furniture Restoration. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is 63,592 Dollars, with the richest citizens earning 7.4 times as much as the poorest.

Weird or unusual crimes merit cruel and unusual punishments, Minitruean Standard Vodka is the only drink that bars stock, six-year-old children playing dress-up are viewed with suspicion, and prisoners work-share to cut down rising costs of keeping them in jail. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Minitrue's national animal is the Watcher, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Minitrue is ranked 60,767th in the world and 252nd in Giovanniland for Lowest Crime Rates, with 71.63 law-abiding acts per hour.
