The Imperium of Solkarion is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by The Archon with an iron fist, and notable for its keen interest in outer space, pith helmet sales, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 1.401 billion Solari 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 medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government is primarily concerned with Defense, although Education, Law & Order, and Administration are also considered important. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Sōlaria. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 46.9%.

The all-consuming Solarian economy, worth 214 trillion Sōls a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Uranium Mining, and Retail. Black market activity is extensive. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 152,477 Sōls, with the richest citizens earning 8.6 times as much as the poorest.

Police drones follow every suspected Peeping Tom, squeaky high prepubescent voices recite the patriotic poem "Hail to The Leader!" before each meal, the writing style of religious hymns often changes mid-stanza, and netizens fiercely argue over who loves The Archon more. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Solkarion's national animal is the Sun Eagle, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Solari.

Solkarion is ranked 285,517th in the world and 59th in The Global Elite for Most Rebellious Youth, scoring -13 on the Stark-Dean Displacement Index.
