The Nomadic Peoples of Minnaia is a huge, safe nation, notable for its infamous sell-swords, absence of drug laws, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, devout population of 448 million Minnaians enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The enormous, liberal, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Spirituality, Welfare, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of None. The average income tax rate is 67.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but stagnant Minnaian economy, worth 7.43 trillion Sea Coins a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Soda Sales, and Retail. Average income is 16,590 Sea Coins, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Literature classes frequently go on field trips to rock concerts, libraries are now installed with jacuzzis and mini-bars, the government pours millions of Sea Coins into rehabilitation programs annually, and only 'organics' are permitted to be citizens. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Minnaia's national animal is the seagull, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Minnaia is ranked 303,936^th in the world and 484^th in Bozarkia for Highest Disposable Incomes, with 5,358.57 Standard Monetary Units.
