The Nomadic People of The Void Collective is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by The Soulless One with a fair hand, and renowned for its national health service, complete lack of prisons, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic population of 7.047 billion Voidenians 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 enormous, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Education, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Voiden. The average income tax rate is 78.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Voidenian economy, worth 674 trillion coins a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is 95,765 coins, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Vegetables are crisper thanks to CRISPR, evenings at university debating societies often end with everyone acknowledging both sides may well be right, celebrities sit helplessly as they are labeled "pompous womples" by The Soulless One, and ambitious "businessmen" use their children to sell and advertise their products. Crime is totally unknown. The Void Collective's national animal is the Phoenix, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

The Void Collective is ranked 258,646th in the world and 790th in 10000 Islands for Most Stationary, with 15.8430106938 days.
