The Raûmede of Solyv is a massive, safe nation, ruled by Eochya de Vovannes with an iron fist, and renowned for its compulsory military service, complete absence of social welfare, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, devout population of 1.878 billion Solyvians, 963 million of whom are zombies, 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, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, although Law & Order, Administration, and Education are also considered important, while International Aid and Welfare aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Sanvièe. The average income tax rate is 34.1%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The strong Solyvian economy, worth 107 trillion Roubles a year, is dominated by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Gambling, Automobile Manufacturing, and Information Technology. Average income is 57,045 Roubles, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.3 times as much as the poorest.

Crocodile roadkill is smeared across the asphalt of the new Formula One track, a milk bath costs more than bathing in money, years of counter-terrorism planning are foiled by small details, and plain-clothes police officers follow Dàguó tourists everywhere they go. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force. Solyv's national animal is the Solyv Eagle, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution, and its national religion is Solyèvean-Rite Aethelism.

Solyv is ranked 55,990^th in the world and 16^th in Aesica for Largest Arms Manufacturing Sector, scoring 13,176.55 on the Charon Conveyancy Index.
