The Tiny Pocket Snuggler of Mini Vandoosa is a titanic, efficient nation, ruled by Lord God Xentra with an iron fist, and notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, compulsory military service, and soft-spoken computers. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 22.444 billion Mini Vandoosans 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 large, corrupt, well-organized government is primarily concerned with Defense, with Education, Healthcare, and Industry also on the agenda, while Law & Order receives no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Mini Serico. The average income tax rate is 76.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The thriving Mini Vandoosan economy, worth a remarkable 2,496 trillion Yen a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a large, well-organized, broadly diversified black market in Information Technology, Arms Manufacturing, Uranium Mining, and Automobile Manufacturing. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an impressive 111,233 Yen, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Strange looking men with big red noses are found hiding behind bushes and inside dustbins, cyber-crime and tin-foil hat sales are both increasing at record rates, cassocked priests and choirboys believe that what happens behind closed doors stays behind closed doors, and families waiting for delayed pipe installations hope daily for rain. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, despite the fact that it is difficult to make it through a day without breaking one of the country's many laws. Mini Vandoosa's national animal is the Spider, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Wing Nibbling.

Mini Vandoosa is ranked 17,336^th in the world and 6^th in Space Sector RPRA for Largest Welfare Programs, scoring 3,460.12 on the Safety Net Mesh Density Rating.
