The Ministry for the Eradication Through Imitation of Hostile Species Unsuitable for Enslavement of Voice of Mod is a gargantuan, orderly nation, ruled by Grand Poobah Mia Usman with an iron fist, and notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, prohibition of alcohol, and anti-smoking policies. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 19.292 billion Moderators are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The enormous, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Spirituality. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of the Sekrit Lair. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 68.7%.

The strong eModerator economy, worth a remarkable 1,274 trillion banhammers 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 slick, highly efficient, fairly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Uranium Mining, Automobile Manufacturing, and Woodchip Exports. 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 66,077 banhammers, with the richest citizens earning 9.8 times as much as the poorest.

This is universally regarded as the worst placeholder ever, all industry is owned and run by the government, travelers often bring empty plastic bottles on Air Voice of Mod flights to avoid the pay lavatories, and the government is under the thumb of countless special interests. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Voice of Mod's national animal is the modbot, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Violetism.

Voice of Mod is ranked 50,982nd in the world and 13th in Testregionia for Lowest Crime Rates, with 73.89 law-abiding acts per hour.
