The Allied States of Solarhis is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Vasher Sunfyre with an even hand, and renowned for its rum-swilling pirates, museums and concert halls, and soft-spoken computers. The compassionate, cheerful population of 4.211 billion Solarhisians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Vorin. The average income tax rate is 96.3%.

The frighteningly efficient Solarhisian economy, worth 924 trillion Solars a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Arms Manufacturing, and Book Publishing. Average income is an amazing 219,563 Solars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Gift hampers filled with delicious beef jerky are sent to newly communist nations, a firework a day does not in fact keep the doctor away, the consent form for routine blood pressure measurement has been nominated for the 'Novel Of The Year' award, and exorbitant spending on icebreakers breaks the ice at every budget meeting. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Solarhis's national animal is the Eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Solar Draconic.

Solarhis is ranked 2,721st in the world and 60th in The East Pacific for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 727.63 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
