The Confederacy of Soloriania is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by Premier Sarima Keso with an iron fist, and notable for its frequent executions, disturbing lack of elderly people, and keen interest in outer space. The hard-nosed, cynical, devout population of 3.304 billion Solorianians are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The relatively small, corrupt, moralistic, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Maharon. The average income tax rate is 33.4%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The powerhouse Solorianian economy, worth 462 trillion paras a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a slick, highly efficient, broadly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Beef-Based Agriculture, Woodchip Exports, and Information Technology. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an impressive 139,866 paras, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Diplomats agree to the terms and conditions of peace treaties without reading them, the dictionary is a common first book for children, it is well recognised that you can't sustain communism without a bit of spirit, and foreign musicians that Premier Sarima Keso dislikes are turned away at the border. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Soloriania's national animal is the Austral black hyena, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Soloriania is ranked 274,939th in the world and 3,764th in The East Pacific for Fattest Citizens, with 6.47 Obesity Rate.
