The Dictatorship of Minitrue is a mammoth, efficient nation, renowned for its public floggings, daily referendums, and otherworldly petting zoo. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 7.648 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 medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Industry. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 72.5%.

The frighteningly efficient Minitruean economy, worth a remarkable 1,183 trillion Dollars a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Woodchip Exports, and Tourism. Black market activity is frequent. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 154,767 Dollars, with the richest citizens earning 5.6 times as much as the poorest.

Being nicknamed "Orange Face" has done Leader's credibility no favours, the people consider response to rudeness to be an acceptable casus belli, pharmaceutical companies emphatically promise that "your pills are in the mail" rather than admit any supply shortfall, and murder rates are on the rise as the popularity of soylent products grows. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded 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 46,723^rd in the world and 8^th in 1984 for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 2,069.43 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
