The United States of The Sol Desert is a colossal, safe nation, ruled by Lord Sandrone with a fair hand, and renowned for its frequent executions, multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic population of 3.033 billion Desertians 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 medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Helios. The average income tax rate is 68.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming Desertian economy, worth 338 trillion Flares a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Beef-Based Agriculture, Information Technology, and Cheese Exports. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 111,476 Flares, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Atheistic refugees haven't got a prayer of being granted asylum, Desertian husbands are dead good at fathering kids, the nation leads Europeia for unlikely accidents and truffle consumption, and tax revenue is often intercepted by international accountants before ever seeing the national treasury. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. The Sol Desert's national animal is the Scorched Snake, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is None.

The Sol Desert is ranked 50,452^nd in the world and 286^th in Europeia for Lowest Crime Rates, with 78.49 law-abiding acts per hour.
