The Queendom of Solitude Isles is a titanic, orderly nation, ruled by Queen Alecxa Rosga II with an iron fist, and remarkable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, zero percent divorce rate, and public floggings. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, devout population of 18.418 billion Crystrians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Spirituality, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Morbin. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 31.6%.

The frighteningly efficient Crystrian economy, worth a remarkable 1,756 trillion Dresds a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Retail, Information Technology, and Uranium Mining. Average income is 95,392 Dresds, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 294,541 per year while the poor average 23,834, a ratio of 12.4 to 1.

One-man canoes fitted with the latest tracking technology leave no room for one man, seven-year-olds debate for weeks on the merits of the Oxford comma, five-year-olds chanting "Little Miss Muffet" are accused of bullying arachnophobes, and the nation refuses to discard its increasingly useless penny. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Solitude Isles's national animal is the Manticore, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Akuism.

Solitude Isles is ranked 247,318th in the world and 64th in Aceon for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring zero on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
