The War torn former territories of Minjiang is a massive, safe nation, ruled by Various Warlords with an iron fist, and remarkable for its national health service, keen interest in outer space, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 2.381 billion Minjo are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The enormous, corrupt, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of The Ruins of Huangtai. The average income tax rate is 81.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The strong Minjo economy, worth 190 trillion Gold Marks a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is mostly made up of the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Furniture Restoration, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Cheese Exports. Average income is 79,799 Gold Marks, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Military minds worry that 'the blue screen of death' on brand new operating systems may be a literal description, no personal detail is too tiny for the suede-denim census police, if a tree falls in the forest and nobody is there to hear it... Minjo satellites can detect it, and the installation of street lights across remote goat tracks has left citizens bemused. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Minjiang's national animal is the Jutzo Dragon, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Minjiang is ranked 307,105^th in the world and 138^th in Fifth Empire for Nicest Citizens, with 0.8 average smiles per day.
