The Empire of Solairin is a small, safe nation, notable for its compulsory military service and restrictive gun laws. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic population of 29 million Selaris 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 relatively small, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Education. The average income tax rate is 18.5%.

The Selarian economy, worth 1.91 trillion Arens a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Automobile Manufacturing, and Basket Weaving. Average income is 65,957 Arens, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.6 times as much as the poorest.

A large-scale revitalization of the education system is underway, artists are pillars of society, organ donation is compulsory, and military spending is on the increase. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Solairin's national animal is the Golden Stag, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Solairin is ranked 138,212^th in the world and 155^th in Aesica for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 474.56 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
