The Community of Soyo Vax is a titanic, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Juno Filum with an even hand, and notable for its national health service, keen interest in outer space, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 19.342 billion Soyo Vaxians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Environment, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Novi Capitis. The average income tax rate is 68.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Soyo Vaxian economy, worth a remarkable 2,516 trillion credits a year, is highly specialized and mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 130,115 credits, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Making up random numbers to name new asteroids is the bulk of astronomers' work, foreign ambassadors closely guard their culinary secrets, juries deliberate more than magic 8-balls, and chess players with pacemakers and cochlear implants are treated with suspicion. Crime is totally unknown. Soyo Vax's national animal is the Vaxian Goose, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Soyo Vax is ranked 1,426^th in the world and 13^th in The Social Liberal Union for Nicest Citizens, with 79.67 average smiles per day.
