The People's Republic of Solova is a titanic, socially progressive nation, ruled by Workers with an even hand, and renowned for its keen interest in outer space, sprawling nuclear power plants, and infamous sell-swords. The compassionate, cheerful population of 16.912 billion Solovans enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The enormous, liberal, socially-minded government prioritizes Education, with Environment, Healthcare, and Administration also on the agenda, while Defense and Spirituality are ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of The People's Commune. The income tax rate is 100%.

The frighteningly efficient Solovan economy, worth a remarkable 5,927 trillion Solovs a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is extremely specialized, is mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing. Average income is an amazing 350,515 Solovs, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Solovan tourists are encouraged to hand out spare condoms to locals while on vacation, East Lebatuckese astronauts' favorite game during downtime on the Multinational Space Station is 'I Spy', mantis shrimp studies is academia's fastest-growing field, and the government spends more on chasing distant comets than on basic infrastructure. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Solova's national animal is the Donkey, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Solova is ranked 1,721^st in the world and 25^th in The Communist Bloc for Most Cultured, scoring 284 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
