The Republic of Solenium is a very large, genial nation, notable for its compulsory military service, sprawling nuclear power plants, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic population of 309 million Soleniumians are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The enormous, liberal, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Welfare. The average income tax rate is 73.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The strong Soleniumian economy, worth 22.1 trillion Marks 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 Tourism industry, with major contributions from Beef-Based Agriculture, Uranium Mining, and Information Technology. Average income is 71,567 Marks, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Pandemics are over and done with by the time it takes to pass the nation's stringent border security, all government facilities are built in the subterranean citadel of Solenium City, the government frequently panders to parents with boutique tax credits, and unwary hikers climbing the bluffs of Mount Solenium City make great practice for foreign snipers. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Solenium's national animal is the Eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Solenium is ranked 82,114^th in the world and 30^th in Aeternas for Most Developed, scoring 66.74 on the Human Development Index.
