The Modly Moderator Moderating Moderately in Moderation of Godular is a gargantuan, safe nation, ruled by Sarathress of the Subtle Strike with a fair hand, and renowned for its barren, inhospitable landscape, state-planned economy, and sprawling nuclear power plants. The hard-nosed, democratic, humorless population of 42.787 billion Godulans 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 medium-sized, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Archona. The income tax rate is 100%.

The frighteningly efficient Godulan economy, worth an astonishing 28,155 trillion Shard Rinds a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is broadly diversified, is led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing and Book Publishing. Average income is a breathtaking 658,032 Shard Rinds, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.1 times as much as the poorest.

The latest Harry Potter book is a bestseller, only adults may purchase violent video games, people invite random old men into their homes to play with their kids, and criminals always seem to be forewarned of police raids. Crime is totally unknown. Godular's national animal is the Cougar, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Atheism.

Godular is ranked 516th in the world and 1st in The Godulus Empire for Highest Food Quality, scoring 434.19 on the Meeshlin-Starr Index.
