The Republic of Mingde is a colossal, genial nation, ruled by CaryOtokonokOwO with a fair hand, and notable for its soft-spoken computers, free-roaming dinosaurs, and digital currency. The compassionate, democratic population of 3.927 billion The People enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The large, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of 桃園市. The average income tax rate is 88.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient The People economy, worth 479 trillion NTDS 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 led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Retail, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Average income is an impressive 122,031 NTDS, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Foreigners "adopt" rotund Nekomimis to line the pockets of wildlife sanctuaries, finders keepers is the law of the land, government leaders testify at international tribunals on why the sun went out, and Catherine Gratwick's campaign support is considered seminal. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Mingde's national animal is the Nekomimi, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Mingde is ranked 18,419^th in the world and 54^th in The Region That Has No Big Banks for Most Extensive Public Healthcare, scoring 4,974.66 on the Theresa-Nightingale Rating.
