The Rogue Nation of The Void Cometh is a colossal, efficient nation, notable for its prohibition of alcohol, parental licensing program, and devotion to social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic, humorless population of 2.569 billion Efilists 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 relatively small, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Education, Industry, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of The Void. The average income tax rate is 71.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient An Efilist economy, worth 568 trillion dollars 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, Retail, and Uranium Mining. Average income is an amazing 221,107 dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Students are wary of colorfully decorated new teachers with names like Professor Pipsqueak, commuters often break into synchronised para-para dancing for no reason at all, prosecutors accuse General Tso of monopolizing the lunch market, and conspiracy nuts claim that the government is trying to bring about an end to civilisation. Crime is totally unknown. The Void Cometh's national animal is the locust, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

The Void Cometh is ranked 35,712^th in the world and 19^th in Philosophers for Highest Average Tax Rates, with 71.55 Effective Tax Rate.
