The Principality of Selos is a titanic, cultured nation, ruled by The Speaker with an even hand, and renowned for its keen interest in outer space, irreverence towards religion, and devotion to social welfare. The quiet, industrious population of 11.187 billion Selosians 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 medium-sized, socially-minded government prioritizes Welfare, although Defense, Education, and Healthcare are also considered important, while Spirituality and Public Transport receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Capitol. The average income tax rate is 56.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The powerhouse Selosian economy, worth a remarkable 1,163 trillion Aureuses a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Arms Manufacturing, and Tourism. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 104,006 Aureuses, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Life expectancies inside correctional facilities vastly exceed the national average, Capitol University is said to be the modern-day Tower of Babel, jaywalking will put an end to a family tree, and it ain't easy to be green enough to be imported into Selos. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Selos's national animal is the Pegasus, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Familial Gods.

Selos is ranked 162,322^nd in the world and 5^th in Nova Minor for Largest Black Market, with 949 billion Standard Monetary Units.
