The Azuretime Couple of Minnotopia is a huge, cultured nation, ruled by Azure n' Two Time with an even hand, and renowned for its barren, inhospitable landscape, keen interest in outer space, and ubiquitous missile silos. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic, devout population of 998 million Minnotopians 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 Education, Administration, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of New Minnotia. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 48.4%.

The frighteningly efficient Minnotopian economy, worth 133 trillion minns a year, is broadly diversified and dominated by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Arms Manufacturing, and Retail. Average income is an impressive 134,046 minns, with the richest citizens earning 9.2 times as much as the poorest.

Cheap textbooks have replaced coasters at college ragers, sexually-starved male dinosaurs terrorise tourists during weekly breakouts from Mesozoic Park, raindances intended to summon storms instead attract tourists, and children gain their first sex education from reading the dictionary. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Minnotopia's national animal is the falcon, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution.

Minnotopia is ranked 288,095^th in the world and 7^th in United Brothers of Vietnamese Students for Largest Black Market, with 50.0 billion Standard Monetary Units.
