The MediTerrestrial Realms of Minas Tyrrith is a titanic, genial nation, ruled by Brother Cadphael with an even hand, and remarkable for its lack of airports, smutty television, and complete lack of prisons. The compassionate, devout population of 17.472 billion Dunedains are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked morass — juggles the competing demands of Administration, Healthcare, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Dunedan City. The average income tax rate is 82.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The strong Minas Tyrrithian economy, worth 679 trillion Dukats a year, is driven almost entirely by government activity. The industrial sector, which is extremely specialized, is mostly made up of the Basket Weaving industry, with significant contributions from Furniture Restoration. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 38,871 Dukats, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.0 times as much as the poorest.

Trespassers often find themselves impaled by crossbow bolts, the media seems excessively interested in what Brother Cadphael is wearing this season, politicians who vacation in East Lebatuck lose their jobs upon their return, and banana distribution among collective farm workers is an important topic in public discourse. Crime, especially youth-related, is moderate, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Minas Tyrrith's national animal is the Unicorn, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Polytheism.

Minas Tyrrith is ranked 330,668^th in the world and 21^st in Caer Sidi for Largest Cheese Export Sector, scoring -12.39 on the Mozzarella Productivity Index.
