The State of Mordae is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by High Commissioner with an even hand, and notable for its compulsory vegetarianism, avowedly heterosexual populace, and punitive income tax rates. The quiet, industrious population of 44.775 billion Mordaeans have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The enormous government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Environment, and Public Transport. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Dominion Heights. The average income tax rate is 82.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The enormous but inefficient Mordaean economy, worth a remarkable 1,876 trillion betales a year, is driven almost entirely by government activity, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is mostly comprised of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, although the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is 41,908 betales, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.2 times as much as the poorest.

Homosexuality is a crime punishable by death, Mordae has designated Dominion Heights as its capital city, High Commissioner has just been declared ruler of Mordae in an international press conference, and a soldier's body is a temple. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Mordae's national animal is the deer, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Mordae is ranked 266,926^th in the world and 636^th in State for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring -8.19 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
