The Football ⚽ Obsessed State of Ter Voland is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Farnetus with an even hand, and notable for its museums and concert halls, ritual sacrifices, and public floggings. The hard-nosed, hard-working, humorless, devout population of 13.473 billion Vōlāndī are free to succeed or fail in life on their own merits; the successful tend to enjoy an opulent (but moralistic) lifestyle, while the failures can be seen crowding out most jails.

The tiny, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Frisco. Income tax is unheard of.

The frighteningly efficient Vōlāndus economy, worth a remarkable 4,803 trillion Garberbucks a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Retail, Arms Manufacturing, and Uranium Mining. Average income is an amazing 356,525 Garberbucks, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.3 times as much as the poorest.

People who have never eaten chicken are told it tastes a bit like crocodile, a state-funded project is investigating whether the moon is made of cheese, the secret ingredient is love (and MSG), and the explosive fireball of the disintegrating space shuttle has devastated Cape Ter Voland. Crime, especially youth-related, is moderate, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Ter Voland's national animal is the Cat, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Football.

Ter Voland is ranked 1,815^th in the world and 1^st in Neo Otaku Utopia for Most Corrupt Governments, with 367.82 kickbacks per hour.
