The Commonwealth of Seolia is a massive, efficient nation, renowned for its compulsory military service, vat-grown people, and infamous sell-swords. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless population of 3.127 billion Seolians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The relatively small, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Law & Order, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Aether City. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 36.4%.

The frighteningly efficient Seolian economy, worth 780 trillion dollars a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Retail, Arms Manufacturing, and Tourism. Black market activity is rampant. Average income is an amazing 249,461 dollars, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 1,264,317 per year while the poor average 27,304, a ratio of 46.3 to 1.

Jabbing a baby's bottle at officials gets parents waved straight through immigration, many of the poor live from cradle to grave without ever seeing sunlight, small businesses are gobbled up almost daily by corporate giants, and the judicial branch is strongly influenced by major corporations. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Seolia's national animal is the Northern goshawk, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Seolia is ranked 228,302^nd in the world and 522^nd in Conch Kingdom for Healthiest Citizens, with 0.8 bananas ingested per day.
