The Federation of Soltis is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, notable for its state-planned economy, devotion to social welfare, and stringent health and safety legislation. The democratic, devout population of 2.176 billion Soltisians love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.

The government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked, socially-minded morass — juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Education, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 76.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but stagnant Soltisian economy, worth 12.6 trillion chams a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a slick, highly efficient black market in Woodchip Exports, Uranium Mining, and Arms Manufacturing. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is 5,783 chams, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Organ donation is compulsory, Harry Potter books are banned, the government awards prizes to television shows featuring stereotype-breaking minority roles, and women who can do math in their head are burned for witchcraft. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Soltis's national animal is the Zelos, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Soltis is ranked 292,228^th in the world and 1^st in Soltis for Most Advanced Defense Forces, scoring 344.36 on the Total War Preparedness Rating.
