The State of Minoa is a gargantuan, safe nation, ruled by Empress Anaïs with a fair hand, and notable for its museums and concert halls, national health service, and daily referendums. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic population of 27.246 billion Minoans hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The relatively small, liberal, outspoken government prioritizes Education, with Industry, Social Policy, and Welfare also on the agenda, while Spirituality and Defense aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Athens. The average income tax rate is 24.4%.

The frighteningly efficient Minoan economy, worth a remarkable 3,010 trillion Minoan tala a year, is led by the Book Publishing industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Information Technology, and Retail. Average income is an impressive 110,488 Minoan tala, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.7 times as much as the poorest.

Nature magazines featuring stick insects on their covers are sometimes mistaken for fashion magazines, vegetables are crisper thanks to CRISPR, the government is allowing greater autonomy for some regions in the hopes of quelling growing secessionist movements, and couples kissing on the street are detained for 'unlawful exchange of genetic material'. Crime is totally unknown. Minoa's national animal is the little owl, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Minoa is ranked 80,206^th in the world and 4^th in Minoa for Lowest Crime Rates, with 68.51 law-abiding acts per hour.
