The Federation of Solidarias is a huge, genial nation, notable for its compulsory military service, keen interest in outer space, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate population of 554 million Solidarians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social and economic equality; they tend to view other countries as corrupted by the hollow pageantry of sham elections.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Defense, and Welfare. The average income tax rate is 77.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The very strong Solidarian economy, worth 45.9 trillion Solidarian Francs 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 Trout Farming industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Retail. Average income is 82,938 Solidarian Francs, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Misbehaving Capybaras deemed dangerous to the public are shot and hanged by the town hall as a warning to others, droves of former desperados are applying to join the border police, Leader's told that love often manifests itself through homicidal four-lettered litanies, and potatoes are known for their lead aftertaste. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Solidarias's national animal is the Capybara, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Solidarias is ranked 77,549^th in the world and 223^rd in Europe for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring 2,780.61 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
