The Republic of Solitirea is a huge, safe nation, renowned for its compulsory military service and punitive income tax rates. The democratic, devout population of 936 million Solitireans are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Defense, and Education. The average income tax rate is 57.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but underdeveloped Solitirean economy, worth 20.5 trillion florins a year, is quite specialized and dominated by the Door-to-door Insurance Sales industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology and Tourism. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 21,926 florins, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Solitirea's national animal is the parrot, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Solitirea is ranked 68,788^th in the world and 1,089^th in Artificial Solar System for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring 3,246.76 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
