The Commonwealth of State of Moderi is a massive, orderly nation, notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, compulsory military service, and suspicion of poets. The cynical, devout population of 1.305 billion State of Moderians are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The medium-sized, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Spirituality, and Welfare. The average income tax rate is 39.1%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but inefficient State of Moderian economy, worth 51.4 trillion pounds a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Woodchip Exports industry, with major contributions from Beef-Based Agriculture, Uranium Mining, and Arms Manufacturing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 39,377 pounds, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The giant 80-storey carving of Leader in Mount Rushless can be seen from space, this summer's chart-toppers sound almost the same as last year's, banana distribution among collective farm workers is an important topic in public discourse, and metal detectors have been banned after a bottle cap caused a riot at the beach. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. State of Moderi's national animal is the bison, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

State of Moderi is ranked 198,127^th in the world and 10^th in United Right for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring zero on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
