The Republic of -Noid is a very large, efficient nation, renowned for its daily referendums, compulsory military service, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, hard-working, devout population of 433 million -Noidians are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Education. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 48.0%.

The powerhouse -Noidian economy, worth 33.6 trillion Coins a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Basket Weaving, Arms Manufacturing, and Woodchip Exports. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 77,612 Coins, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 275,209 per year while the poor average 15,788, a ratio of 17.4 to 1.

-Noidian watches list strained wrists as a common side effect, the threat of economic apocalypse brings out the best in people, aggravated apostrophe abusers are admonished and assaulted, and studio executives abandon tragic stories of star-crossed lovers because "it's been done". Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. -Noid's national animal is the Animal.
