The Republic of Amintera is a colossal, pleasant nation, remarkable for its barren, inhospitable landscape. The hard-working population of 5.217 billion Aminterans have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 27.5%.

The Aminteran economy, worth 196 trillion dollars a year, is quite specialized and led by the Furniture Restoration industry, with significant contributions from Basket Weaving, Retail, and Gambling. Average income is 37,637 dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.0 times as much as the poorest.

The country's famous rainforests are being bulldozed by the mining industry, TV shows must meet strict ethnicity quotas, families are left homeless as entire suburbs are bulldozed on the whim of tribal chiefs, and it is illegal to make racist remarks in public. Crime is moderate. Amintera's national animal is the horse, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Amintera is ranked 173,153^rd in the world and 10^th in The Union of Rightwing Nations for Most Subsidized Industry, scoring 383.49 on the Gilded Widget Scale.
