Mohskovuus is a fictional municipality set in a boreal region of northern Europe. It is described as a small, self-contained community with a mixed economy and a landscape that includes forests, lakes, and rolling hills. The name is presented as rooted in historical linguistic influences, though it is not tied to a real place.

Geographically, Mohskovuus lies on a low plateau bordered by conifer forests and several natural lakes, with the Mohs River running through the eastern part of the municipality. The climate features cold winters and mild to warm summers, with precipitation distributed throughout the year.

The toponym Mohskovuus is styled as survivals from medieval settlement, with archeological hints described in the fictional lore. The community is said to have formed around agricultural and forestry activities and was incorporated as a municipality in the early 20th century. In the contemporary setting, it participates in regional intermunicipal cooperatives.
