The Republic of Minotaurus- is a massive, socially progressive nation, notable for its absence of drug laws and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-working, democratic population of 3.216 billion Minotaurus-ians live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.

The minute, liberal, pro-business, outspoken government, or what there is of one, prioritizes Defense, although Healthcare, Welfare, and Education are also considered important, while International Aid and Spirituality receive no funds. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 6.0%.

The strong Minotaurus-ian economy, worth 146 trillion yen a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is led by the Gambling industry, with significant contributions from Pizza Delivery, Book Publishing, and Basket Weaving. Average income is 45,451 yen, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 298,106 per year while the poor average 2,713, a ratio of 109 to 1.

Crime is a major problem, probably because of the absence of a police force. Minotaurus-'s national animal is the raven.

Minotaurus- is ranked 331,522^nd in the world and 5,565^th in Artificial Solar System for Most Conservative, scoring 3 on the Bush-Santorum Dawning Terror Index.
